RE: Socket.Available and UDP datagrams

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Hi Claire,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you need to know if socket.available
only advertise when there are complete packets in its buffers. If there is
any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

As far as I know, it has to return the size of the first message when a
complete message is available in buffer. According to MSDN, if you are
using a message-oriented socket type such as Dgram, the available data is
the first message in that buffer. If no data is queued in the network
buffer, Available returns 0.

So there are complete messages in buffer, it returns the size of the first
one. Or it returns 0.

HTH.
