I’ve got a couple questions about sending images over.
How do I handle different types of files, jpeg, png, etc.
If the file is large, I ave to use sequence numbers… but I don’t know how to stop recving if I do not know the number of sequence numbers.
My knowledge of transfering images / files is next to none. I have never programmed anything like that before. Was hoping to get some tips and tricks =)
Thanks alot.
I am also using QT, if that helps my situation at all.
If you use a TCP socket, you need no sequence numbers, because TCP already ensures that data arrive in the same order as they where send. Just send the data, and when done close the connection. Optionally you can use some self-defined type of packet header that gives additional information (e.g. if you want to transmit multiple files over one connection).
