[Opentnl-general] BitStream as an RPC parameter?

[Ville A. B. <vbe...@cc...>]

Hi,

I would like to use a BitStream as an RPC parameter. Since the OpenTNL 
RPCs already accept ByteBuffer parameters, I guess this should be 
possible, but what would be the safest way of doing it?


On the calling side I can use

void Send(XXX &myobject)
{
   BitStream s;
   myobject.Write(s);
   connection->rpcSend(s);
}

but what about the receiving side? I was thinking of something like

TNL_IMPLEMENT_RPC(MyConnection, rpcSend, (ByteBufferPtr buf), (buf),
   NetClassGroupGameMask, RPCGuaranteedOrdered, RPCDirClientToServer, 0)
{
   BitStream s(buf->getBuffer(), buf->getBufferSize());
   XXX myobject;
   myobject.Read(s);
   ...
}

Does this approach work, or am I completely on a wrong track here?


Thanks in advance,
Ville
