(IIRC you suggested using an NSMutableArray of NSNumbers?) Honestly, it depends. It does have overhead, although not as much as it used to, since NSNumbers of reasonable-size integers don't allocate

Hi Jens, You solved two problem in one with your last post - thanks a lot! I had some other information that was being passed back and forth and creating a structure allowed me to solve the Array

Yes, this makes total sense. I guess I just had a blonde moment (I’m not even blonde) and didn’t think of it. I do use VMWare for testing, though unfortunately I need to pay for the upgrade to

None at all! I have very little experience in this area. Great, I was hoping someone would help me in exactly this way. I thought the length field approach would work, but those with more experience

This is a classic newbie networking mistake. (No offense I hope!) TCP is a stream, and there is absolutely no delimiter between writes, and no association between the number of bytes written vs. the

I'm guessing High Sierra, macOS 10.13. Yet another reason why people should use version numbers and not these silly, meaningless code names. Sent from iCloud's ridiculous UI, so, sorry about the

High Sierra.

What is HS?

You do if you want to test APFS, which is only available for SSD or Fusion disks the last time I checked. Admittedly, I haven’t yet checked the release notes for the most recent beta, but I've

This. This. This. This. Create a VM of your current OS. Duplicate it as needed and make changes to each OS image to suit your needs. It’s a massive timesaver with fast SSDs.

One suggestion for testing on a single machine is to use VMware Fusion to create multiple macOS VMs. You will want a system with decent speed, but the environment should do exactly what you need with

This is a follow-up to my question last week. I got my NSNetService + Streams approach more or less working, with one small problem (i’ll get to that). But I also checked out Multipeer

In that light, is my suggestion useless overhead?

You can't assign (or compare) arrays in C/C++. You have two options: (a) Call memcpy: memcpy(&myArray, &_mArray, sizeof(myArray)); (b) Wrap a struct around the array, since structs are copyable.

Can you publish the actual declarations for myArray and mArray? The ones you show aren’t quite legal and will be rejected by C compilers. There isn’t that much different from regular C. In your

Yep. Objective-C is C. You have to know C to be able to program in Objective-C. In C, arrays are not first class objects. So you cannot use = to copy arrays (or to take a reference to an array,

You can save them as NSIntegers in an NSMutableArray. The thing about NSDictionaries and NSArrays is that they need to contain NSObjects that are Cocoa

Hi All, I’ve converted some C code into Objective-C and have some C Array structures like so: int [10][10]) myArray; That I want to store in a Property or iVar inside a Wrapper Class. How do I

Right. You need to keep track of that yourself, like with a Peer class that can hold onto those streams and act as their delegate. NSNetService doesn't really have anything to do with those streams.
