title:: jitlib_networking
summary:: networked programming
categories:: Libraries>JITLib>Tutorials
related:: Overviews/JITLib
emphasis::please note any problems, I'll try to add solutions here.::
section::1) using ProxySpace with more than one client, with separate bus spaces
note::
if only one client is using a remote server, only step (a) and step (d) are relevant. The clientID argument can be left out then.
::
subsection::before you start
remember to synchronize your system clocks. This can be done by:
definitionList::
## in OS X || SystemPreferences>Date&Time: set emphasis::"Set Date & Time automatically":: to true.
## in linux || set the ntp clock
::
a local time server is better than the apple time server. if you cannot sync the time, you can set the server latency to code::nil::. This will break the pattern's functionality though.
subsection::a) boot the (remote) server and create a local model
(you cannot directly boot a remote server instance)
code::
s = Server("serverName", NetAddr(hostname, port), clientID);
::
definitionList::
## serverName || can be any name
## hostname || is an ip address, or if you have a name resolution, a network name
## port || the port on which the server is listening. default is 57110
## clientID || for each client (each sc-lang) emphasis::a different integer number has to be given::
::
see link::Classes/Server::
subsection::b) from each client, initialize the default node and set notify to true:
code::
s.boot; // this will initialize the tree and start notification
// if needed, a server window can be created:
s.makeWindow;
::
subsection::c) preallocate a range of busses in each client.
If there is conflicts, increase the number of busses in the server options before booting:
code::
s.options.numAudioBusChannels = 1024; //optional
::
code::
(
var numberOfParticipants, n;
numberOfParticipants = 4;
n = s.options.numAudioBusChannels / numberOfParticipants;
n = n.floor.asInteger * s.clientID;
s.audioBusAllocator.alloc(n);
n = s.options.numControlBusChannels / numberOfParticipants;
n = n.floor.asInteger * s.clientID;
s.controlBusAllocator.alloc(n);
)
::
subsection::d) now create a ProxySpace from the server:
code::
p = ProxySpace.push(s);
::
section::2) using ProxySpace with more than one client, with a partly shared bus space
step a, b like in link::#1)_using_proxyspace_with_more_than_one_client,_with_separate_bus_spaces#(1)::, skip (d)
subsection::c) before allocating a number of busses for each client, create shared busses:
code::
p = ProxySpace.push(s);
~shared1.ar(2);
~shared2.ar(2);
~sharedkr.kr(1); // or other names.
::
then do (c) like in link::#1)_using_proxyspace_with_more_than_one_client,_with_separate_bus_spaces#(1)::, just take care that the shared busses are taking number space already, so the easiest is to increase the numberOfParticipants by one, so no overrun happens.
section::3) writing a chat
see example in link::Classes/Client:: in the strong::JITLibExtensions:: quark.
see also link::Classes/Public:: in the strong::JITLibExtensions:: quark.
