[ENet-discuss] Auto disconnect at client witheventENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT

[Thomas Johansson]

Im having trouble understanding how this works.

I have a program where a client connects to a server. Both sides sends only reliable messages. This works fine at first.

Then my client preforms an operation that take several seconds, this causes a timeout due to the fact that no enet_host_service occurs.

I then try to increse the timeout limits by changing to the following:
NET_PEER_TIMEOUT_LIMIT                = 128, 
 ENET_PEER_TIMEOUT_MINIMUM              = 10000,
ENET_PEER_TIMEOUT_MAXIMUM              = 50000,

Both on client and server.

After I do this, no timeouts occur. However no messages I send seem to reach the server after the point in time where the timeout previously occured and nothing gets acked (thus a timeout occurs eventually).

What could it be? Im confused. Are there additional timeout limits I need to set or am I messing up the throttling algorithm by
changing the timeout values?

    Hi! 

    Looking for any active enetian, who could help out :),

    I was doing some stress testing for enet library on my LAN .

    1> I use Enet Server to to accept 2000 clients and send them small test data and also receive small 
          test data. (In Infinte loop ) at interval of 1 second.

    2> I use  Enet multithreaded  program which spawns  300 test clients sending/receiving  some test data at interval of 1 second .


                               Now it happens that the slowly client's  connection breaks down posting event ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT , where as the server didn't disconnect the client .


    On a Lan under ideal circumstances, there should be no such TIMEOUT .I further tried to explore into enet code and did the following stuff:

     1>set in enet.h           ENET_PEER_TIMEOUT_LIMIT                = 64

     2>protocol.c line no :913 ,       if (outgoingCommand -> roundTripTimeout >= (outgoingCommand -> roundTripTimeoutLimit )*400)
     ie. increased the roundTripTimeoutLimit by 400 times

    3>tried out 
    enet_peer_throttle_configure(*tempIter,5000,10,500);

    but all in vain .


    Could some one with a good understanding on enet post some solution to this problem and throw some more light on enet_peer_throttle_configure() making it usage more clear
