Detailed Description

A transport class for the NATUDP type of URL. Internally this extends the UDP URL.
The exported URL is encoded to contain NAT information required to find machines located anywhere on the local network or the internet using an external NATResolver server.

Error Listen ( const int  channel)
virtual

Sets this Transport to listen on a certain channel. The default channel is defined as AnyGameChannel

Parameters
channelthe channel to listen on, for example DefaultGameChannel. This parameter need not be passed in, in which case AnyGameChannel is used.
Returns
A Transport::Error is returned indicating success or failure for the operation

Implements Transport.

Error Listen ( const std::string &  address)

A Transport::Error is returned indicating success or failure for the operation

Implements Transport.

int Recv ( char *const  data,
const int  maxlen 
)
virtual

Tries to receive data pending at this Transport. Data packets received by this method are not merged together.

Parameters
datathe data buffer to use
maxlenthe maximum length of this data buffer
Returns
the length of the data received or zero for no data pending. If maxlen is too small the size of the next packet is still returned but the packet data is not returned. The next function call should use an increased maxlen size for the packet.

Implements Transport.

Error Send ( const char *  data,
const int  len 
)
virtual

Tries to send data to the currently connected Transport via the "unreliable" method without using any form of packet loss correction.
This method of sending packets is very cheap since there is no packet loss correction. Before attempting to send any data using this transport instance wait for GetStatus() to return kTransport_EOK.

Parameters
datathe data to send
lenthe length of the data to send
Returns
A Transport::Error is returned indicating success or failure for the operation

Implements Transport.

Error SendCertain ( const char *  data,
const int  len 
)
virtual

Tries to send data to the currently connected Transport via the "certain" method that guarantees delivery of packets but does not gaurantee the packet receive order is maintained.
This method is less expensive than the "reliable" method because send and receive order is not preserved. Before attempting to send any data using this transport instance wait for GetStatus() to return kTransport_EOK.

Parameters
datathe data to send
lenthe length of the data to send
Returns
A Transport::Error is returned indicating success or failure for the operation

Implements Transport.

Error SendOrdered ( const char *  data,
const int  len,
const unsigned int  band = 0 
)
virtual

Tries to send data to the currently connected Transport via the "unreliable ordered" method without using any form of packet loss correction.
This method of sending packets is very cheap since there is no packet loss correction. Packets will be received at the destination in order. Before attempting to send any data using this transport instance wait for GetStatus() to return kTransport_EOK.

Parameters
datathe data to send
lenthe length of the data to send
bandThis optional parameter allows the user to send ordered packets and ensure they are in original order grouped by band. This parameter is optional for a Transport to support and if supported the Transport may only support a limited number of bands.
Returns
A Transport::Error is returned indicating success or failure for the operation

Implements Transport.

Error SendReliable ( const char *  data,
const int  len,
const unsigned int  band = 0 
)
virtual

Tries to send data to the currently connected Transport via the "reliable" method that guarantees packets are received in the same order they are sent.
This method of sending packets is the most expensive in terms of CPU time and memory buffers Before attempting to send any data using this transport instance wait for GetStatus() to return kTransport_EOK.

Parameters
datathe data to send
lenthe length of the data to send
bandThis optional parameter allows the user to send reliable packets and ensure they are in original order grouped by band. This parameter is optional for a Transport to support and if supported the Transport may only support a limited number of bands.
Returns
A Transport::Error is returned indicating success or failure for the operation

Implements Transport.

void SetBandwidthLimit ( const Bandwidth  enable)
virtual

Sets the bandwidth limit algorithm to be used for this Transport type.

Parameters
enableThe default parameter is kBandwidth_Off which disables any bandwidth limit for this Transport type. kBandwidth_Connection will turn on bandwidth calculation for each instance and connection using this Transport. For example, if there are five instances of this Transport type and kBandwidth_Connection is used with the maximum outgoing bandwidth to be 1000 bytes per second then the maximum combined bandwidth will capped to five times 1000 bytes per second, which is 5000 bytes per second.

Reimplemented from Transport.

void SetEnableLANDiscovery ( const bool  enable)
virtual

Enables or disables LAN discovery of this transport type.

Parameters
enableSet this to be true to enable LAN discovery. False will disable LAN discovery. The default is true.

Reimplemented from Transport.

void SetMaximumInputBandwidth ( const int  bytesPerSecond)
virtual

Sets the maximum input bandwidth for emulation.

Parameters
bytesPerSecondthe bandwidth in bytes per second. The default value is 0 meaning there is no limit.

Reimplemented from Transport.

void SetMaximumOutputBandwidth ( const int  bytesPerSecond)
virtual

Sets the maximum output bandwidth for emulation.

Parameters
bytesPerSecondthe bandwidth in bytes per second. The default value is 0 meaning there is no limit.

Reimplemented from Transport.

bool SetNATValues ( const bool  isAdvertised,
const int  globalID,
const int  sessionID 
)

This sets the NAT values to be used for this transport instance. These values are set at construction time from the internal lobby state and may be changed at any time before Connect() or Listen() are used.

Returns
Success returns true, failure returns false.
static void SetServer ( const XPAddress address)
static

This sets the NATResolver server address for any NATUDP transports. This must be called before any NATUDP transports have been registered by RNLobby::RegisterDefaultTransports(). The default is to have no server set and therefore the default server is configured by the internal lobby state from any successful Backend verification. PlatformHeap::ForceFree() will also clear any server that has been set.
