Post subject:  [tutorial] .NET Commands (and multi-user interfaces)

Here is the (hopefully) long awaited tutorial on .NET commands and multi-user interfaces! This tutorial that I wrote will explain (most of) the .NET commands, how to use the basic netStream commands, and how to create a multi-user (server/client) interface. I hope this helps you all!

I give bits, because that's what I'm suppose to do when people dedicate time to write good tutorials, but then DanShadow's bits are static....

so.....

I give you cookie.

Perhaps you can tell me how to find a working port? and a site i soppose?

Do you need to purchase a server to run a chat? or can i make a little one to use with a friend???

This i find really interesting, and well, your toutoreals good, but i still have those questions...

Oh, and i mada a pong game, its sweet, but glitchy...

A working port...there are 10s of 1000s. Like... 5675 for example.
The server is just a program that is written that interacts with connecting clients.
Think of this example:
Quote:

The is a SERVER in a coffee shop named BOB.
BOB is the SERVER.
Bob's job is to server all the CLIENTs (customers) who try to talk to him.
A CLIENT named JANET comes in the coffee shops, and begings to talk to BOB, the SERVER. (JANET [client] connects to BOB [server]). BOB starts talking back (accepting connection), and asks what JANET would like. JANET asks BOB for a cup of coffee (client requests information from server). BOB says 'sure!', and gives JANET a cup of coffee. (server gives information to client after the client had requested it).
Suddenly, another CLIENT comes in, and begings to talk, so BOB does the same thing he did with JANET.
Each client speaks to the server (BOB) over a thread (or in Turing, a netStream). The server can respond to multiple netStreams using the tutorial method mentioned above.
In this example, BOB the server is serving multiple customers (CLIENTS).
BOB is a server, and is just really a program. BOB can run on any computer, and any CLIENT can connect to the SERVER (BOB), as long as they know where he is (the IP address).


Hope this clears it up for you.

I cant seem to download this guide. The message I get is :

Is there any other way to download this tutorial? Thanks

What would be a good simple language that u would recommend to start programming Net based programs?
I'm starting a "Habo Hotel" like game and i need a language that can easily send information over one port. Compared to the 50+ish i had to use with turing.

And PLEASE dont tell me Java! Please! For my own sanity!

a question why running away form java?
it might work?

I hear Java is a good start to Net based programs. Razz

Ya, i heard Java was good too, but the syntax for it is annoying when compared to something like python.
i know this is probably just my opinion but to me as good as Java is on a multi platform level, on a practical programming level id rather stick to Turing (i cant believe i just said that)

I completely agree. I really dislike Java. I have a similar problem as well. The current semester is coming to an end and so shall my binds to Turing. I feel that it's best I move on to a better language. I just don't know what I should go to next. There are pro's and con's in all languages, although I seriously considered: Java, Python, Visual Basic, C++, and C#. Does anyone have any suggestions *cough* Tony! *cough*

Scheme! I've toyed around with it, and it is a very fun language. I suggest you take a look at it if you're serious about it.
