I’m working on a socket app in Ruby Shoes, and want to send a message to the server. The server expects the XML message, and then a null (0) character.
How can I send that in TCP Sockets in Ruby?
Thanks.

I found my own answer… The problem was not sending the NULL, it was a thread issue.
You can send a NULL as part of a string by just concatenating it on to the end of the string…
NULL = ‘\000’
… tc = tc + ‘</endtag>’
tc = tc + NULL
Socket.send(tc, 0)
