[Gambas-user] Eeek... help. Gambas 3, latest SVN

[Anthony Ivan]

If it helps any - Granted this is now talking about serial ports vs 
networking:

In another part of the project I communicate with a VHF radio via RS232 
serial port. In this code I Write Byte[] information to the radio and 
that works perfectly. Because of the way the radio replies I Read single 
byte's back rather than read byte[] so I can't see if that also 
works..... but since write seems to be okay with byte[]/string[] etc it 
might infer the error with the network Socket problem is in how Read 
works (??) when trying to fill something[] array's???
