Question

I currently work on a server/client program based on asynchronous socket. As far as I see the send() method of the socket class mainly accept byte buffer. Do I have to convert everything to byte array or is there any other method?

What should I do to send a simple string for example?

Answer 1

string sendMessage = "This is a clarified example now";
byte[] byteMessage = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(sendMessage)

Should be all you need. I, for one, am a fan of 30+ character function calls.
