For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))

Dear all;

 A couple of weeks I have posted these question :
http://www.wellho.net/forum/The-Tcl-programming-language/Tcl-socket-client.html
However, I still get the some probleme !

In fact i acquired serial data  from a cyberglove hardware.  I'm attempting to send those data, value by value,  to a TCL client.  Actually, the client print data when the buffer is filled but I want data be transmitted by server and received by client without waiting for the Buffer being filled. (send value by value). As suggest by Graham Ellis i have configurate  channel (by using fconfigure) as follow:

Code:
   ----------------------------------------------------
proc read_data {} {
       set sum 0
       set count 0
       set mask 0x5A
           
       set channel [socket localhost 9900]
       fconfigure $channel -translation binary -buffering line
       while 1 {
           set data [read $channel]
          flush($data)
           foreach item [split $data {}] {
               incr count
                   
               set value [scan $item %c]
             
              puts -nonewline $value
           }
           if {[eof $channel]} break
       }
       puts "\nSum is '[format %x $sum]'."
       return $count
   }
   read_data
  ---------------------------------------------------------

But i have allways the some probleme: the cleint wait the server loop to print data !!

 Is there a way to fix this probleme ?


Best regards

My suggestion before was to use buffering none (that's what was in the example I pointed you to)), but I see you have used buffering line.  If you use buffering line, then the system will buffer until it happens upon a bit pattern that represents a new line character, or until the socket is closed.
