Re: Accessing DataSocket Server with Python

I have no idea about the protocol used by NI DataSockets, but you
might be able to reverse engineer the protocol by using the official
client with a sniffer.

Also, be aware that TCP/IP guarantees that you get the correct data in
the correct order, but it doesn't guarantee anything about the sizes
of the chunks in which that data arrives.  So you could send 100
bytes, 100 bytes, 100 bytes, but on the other end receive 100 bytes,
50 bytes, 75 bytes, 75 bytes.  When you catenate them all together,
it's still the same data though.

HTH.
