[ENet-discuss] ENet and Me (AKA How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Networking Made Well)

[Nicholas J Ingrassellino]

I just wanted to put in my two cents.

As anyone who has been watching my headaches on this mailing list I have 
been playing with ENet a lot as of late. As much as a new guy can, I 
have put it through its paces. I have also put a few other networking 
libs that the game development community considers good through their 
paces. For reliable UDP, ENet is heads above the rest. I have tested it 
over FiOS and cellular links and tried my best to break it. ENet has 
stood up to insane amounts of large and small packets. It eats little 
resources (my previous thread about CPU usage happened to the rest of 
the libs as well) and is easy to use (once you figure out a few things 
not included in the terse tutorial).

My hat off to ENet!

One feature request: A better manual/howto. Perhaps in the future I will 
write one myself and share. Perhaps.

"The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically 
solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could 
not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps 
some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying."
