## Member Function Documentation

void RakNetTransport::CloseConnection | ( | SystemAddress | systemAddress | ) | `[virtual]`

Disconnect systemAddress . The binary address and port defines the SystemAddress structure.

Parameters:

  `[in]` | systemAddress | The player/address to disconnect

Implements TransportInterface.

void RakNetTransport::DeallocatePacket | ( | Packet * | packet | ) | `[virtual]`

Deallocate the Packet structure returned by Receive

Parameters:

  `[in]` | The | packet to deallocate

Implements TransportInterface.

char * RakNetTransport::GetIncomingPassword | ( | void |  | ) |

Returns the password set by SetIncomingPassword().

Returns:
  The password set by SetIncomingPassword()

SystemAddress RakNetTransport::HasLostConnection | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual]`

If a system loses the connection, you should queue that event and return the systemAddress/address of that player in this function.

Returns:
  The SystemAddress/address of the system

Implements TransportInterface.

SystemAddress RakNetTransport::HasNewConnection | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual]`

If a new system connects to you, you should queue that event and return the systemAddress/address of that player in this function.

Returns:
  The SystemAddress/address of the system

Implements TransportInterface.

Packet * RakNetTransport::Receive | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual]`

Return a string. The string should be allocated and written to Packet::data . The byte length should be written to Packet::length . The player/address should be written to Packet::systemAddress If your transport protocol adds special formatting to the data stream you should parse it out before returning it in the packet and thus only return a string in Packet::data

Returns:
  The packet structure containing the result of Receive, or 0 if no data is available

Implements TransportInterface.

void RakNetTransport::Send | ( | SystemAddress | systemAddress,
|  | const char * | data,
|  |  | ... |
| ) |  |  | `[virtual]`

Send a null-terminated string to systemAddress If your transport method requires particular formatting of the outgoing data (e.g. you don't just send strings) you can do it here and parse it out in Receive().

Parameters:

  `[in]` | systemAddress | The player to send the string to
  `[in]` | data | format specifier - same as RAKNET_DEBUG_PRINTF
  `[in]` | ... | format specification arguments - same as RAKNET_DEBUG_PRINTF

Implements TransportInterface.

void RakNetTransport::SetIncomingPassword | ( | const char * | password | ) |

Sets the password which incoming connections must match. While not required, it is highly recommended you set this in a real game environment or anyone can login and control your server. Don't set it to a fixed value, but instead require that the server admin sets it when you start the application server

Parameters:

  `[in]` | password | Null-terminated string to use as a password.

bool RakNetTransport::Start | ( | unsigned short | port,
|  | bool | serverMode |
| ) |  |  | `[virtual]`

Start the transport provider on the indicated port.

Parameters:

  `[in]` | port | The port to start the transport provider on
  `[in]` | serverMode | If true, you should allow incoming connections (I don't actually use this anywhere)

Returns:
  Return true on success, false on failure.

Implements TransportInterface.
