C++ Question OrbConnect not returning status

[CaptainWeekend]

Greetings fellow Sim enthusiasts:

I'm trying to create my first connection with Orb Connect using MS Visual Studio / C++

I copied a simple socket connect example program from here: http://space.wccnet.edu/~chasselb/linux275/ClassNotes/sockets/ms_winsock.htm
and tried to modify it to work with OrbConnect. I think I'm close, but I don't get a response back. However, when I close the Orbiter client window, I do get a message back that says "Simulation Closed".

I think there is something wrong with the format that I'm sending the data in. The socket appears to be open, or else I wouldn't be getting the response back when I close the simulation, right?

Here is the code that I'm using to communicate:

Can someone take a look at this and point out where I'm going wrong? I've never used sockets before. I've tried to do my homework, but couldn't find a solution on my own.

Thanks in advance for any guidance

I didn't thoroughly check your code, but skimming it it looks OK. You could try puttytel.exe with a raw mode connection to get a simple TCP client shell in order to try out the format and behaviour.

This way you could get a feeling for how OrbConnect is supposed to work with a working socket mechanism. If this is already failing, don't wonder about your code, as you might have a buggy version.

regards,
Face

 

[CaptainWeekend]

Wow, thanks for the fast response Face!

I did try what you suggested, using PuTTYtel to connect. I was able to enter the same command and get a response back:

ORB:SimTime
ORB:SimTime=81.780413

Which tells me that the problem is definitely with my C++ skills. No surprise really. I've taken some classes and played around a bit, but am far from an expert.

Does anyone have an example of a simple C++ program that makes a call to OrbConnect and returns a value? I'm willing to throw away everything I've tried and go with a different approach if anyone can suggest one.

It is possible that a "\n" is not enough, maybe "\r\n" or "\n\r" is necessary to terminate the line.

Your example seems minimal enough to me, especially because it seems to work OK with receiving a "Session closed" on shutdown.

Another guess would be inserting a sleep period (let's say 1 second) between connect and the first send.

 

[CaptainWeekend]

That was it. I changed "ORB:SimTime\n" to "ORB:SimTime\r\n" and I started getting information back. I don't want to say how many hours I spent looking at that trying to figure it out.:facepalm:

I've been playing Orbiter for years so I figured I'd finally dive in and start writing some code with the goal of building a cockpit. It's great to know that I've got a great community of like-minded individuals to fall back on when I get stuck.

Thanks so much for your quick response.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. RL if pummeling me at the moment. I'll update the documentation to make sure that's called out. Sorry for the head scratcher, but thanks for trying O:C.

Something to consider maybe: I usually write parsers so they treat \n as end of line and ignore \r. That way, it will work regardless if the client sends \r\n or just \n. I'm not aware of any real world situations where the client would use only \r as end of line.

Another option is to treat \r OR \n as end of line. That way, "aa\r\nbb\n" will get broken down to:

aa
<empty>
bb

Have the parser ignore empty lines, and you're fine.

I'm not aware of any real world situations where the client would use only \r as end of line.

Given that Orbiter only/always runs on Windows, using the Windows EOL convention makes sense and makes the code in Orb:Connect simpler.
