Hey,

I use the code from the following great tutorial:

http://content.gpwiki.org/index.php/SDL:Tutorial:Using_SDL_net

But I can send only from the client to the server. Can you help me what do I have to add the code to send from the server to the client? Do I have to create another socket, or I can use that one already open? Note that I need only one client per server, so I want just something simple.

Thank you,

Václav

You can just write to the same socket you read from. (csd in the tutorial example), to support multiple clients you just have to keep calling accept on the main socket (sd in the tutorial) and store the sockets it returns in a list.
