Package Forge.Networking.Core

Classes
class	Configuration
	This class contains Lidgren.Network configuration settings that are used when creating NetPeer (typically either a NetServer or a NetClient type) instances.
interface	INetworkConnectionMonitor
	Object that monitors the connection and disconnection of other computers. More...
interface	INetworkMessage
	A message transmitted over the network. Network messages are always transmitted in order and reliably. More...
interface	INetworkMessageHandler
	Client code that is executed upon the receipt of a network message. More...
class	BaseNetworkMessageHandler< TNetworkMessage >
	Base type that all INetworkMessageHandlers should extend from (for a simplified API). More...
class	NetworkContext
	Holds important information about the current network connection and additionally about INetworkMessage listeners. More...
class	NetworkMessageDispatcher
	This class serves as a registry for INetworkMessageHandlers. It supports efficient lookup of message type to message handler responders.
class	ServerDiscoveryFormat
struct	DiscoveredServer
	Contains information about a running server. More...
class	NetworkServerDiscovery
	This class makes it simple to automatically discover servers that are running on the local network.
class	Player
	A network player is an abstraction over a network connection. More...

Enumerations
enum	NetworkMessageRecipient { NetworkMessageRecipient.All, NetworkMessageRecipient.Server, NetworkMessageRecipient.Clients }
	Specifies which computers an INetworkMessage should be delivered to. More...

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum Forge.Networking.Core.NetworkMessageRecipient

Specifies which computers an INetworkMessage should be delivered to.

Enumerator
All	All computers process the message. Each computer will processes each message in the same order. That is, computer A sends message A, and computer B sends message B, both computers will process both messages in the same order (whether it be A then B or B then A is undefined, but both computers will select the same (a,b) or (b,a) group). In regards to implementation details, this message type requires that the message be sent to the server before any computer can process it (for ordering purposes). The server then rebroadcasts the message to every computer for execution. This is not particularly lightweight, but it does simplify networking logic.
Server	The message should be processed by only the server. This message type can only be sent by any computer in the network, whether it be a client or a server.
Clients	The message should be processed by all clients but not the server. This message type can only be sent by the server.
