No, it is a default value which is valid if you not set the 'size' parameter.
If you want other maximum number of bytes to receive then set it at the second value of the function.

if you have any problem, you should create a small, smallest possible code to demostrate problem

here i have modified a bit some samples and yes i see that 8192 seems to be a hardcore limit, or we are doing something wrong
the following test files are tested in Windows and as long as i send 819_3_ bytes i get error "message too long

so either we are doing soemthing wrong, or hollywood has some hardcoded max limit to 8192

sample server demostaring our "problem"

Code: Select all

af = CreateUDPObject(Nil, 12345)
DebugPrint(GetLocalPort(af, #NETWORKUDP))

InstallEventHandler({onreceiveudpdata = Function(msg)

	DebugPrint("received")
	data$,ip$,port = ReceiveUDPData(af,10000)
	OpenFile(1,"c:\\receiveudpdata.raw",#MODE_WRITE)
	WriteString(1,data$)
	CloseFile(1)
	DebugPrint("ok")
	EndFunction})

Repeat
	WaitEvent
Forever
sample client

Code: Select all

CreateUDPObject(1)
For i=1 To 1
	For y=1 To 8192
		data$ = data$.. ToString(i)
	Next 
Next 

InstallEventHandler({onkeyup = Function(msg)
	SendUDPData(1,data$, "127.0.0.1", 12345)
EndFunction})

Repeat
	WaitEvent
Forever

Yes, you're right. ReceiveUDPData() is limited to 8192 bytes per call. Actually we've had this before, see here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2237

no its not mentiom
manual clearly states

Code: Select all

size
    optional: maximum number of bytes to receive (defaults to 8192 bytes)
which means that it set to 8192 but if you CHANGE size with size attribute you can have a differenct size
either 1024 or 65535 , which is ,in my knowledge, true udp limit

I've edited my reply. It is mentioned in the latest Hollywood master because of this report: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2237 But it's not in the 8.0 docs.

ok, so this is a hollywood limitaion but how to workaround if a server sends bigger files ?

i have try the following

Code: Select all

data$,ip$,port = ReceiveUDPData(af,4096)
data2$,ip$,port = ReceiveUDPData(af,4096)
yet again hollywood fails in FIRST line because data to be received are larger that its "size" so is there a workaround for this ?

fails message in debug
Error in line 7 (UDP-test_Server_bigfile.hws): The following network error occurred:
Message too long

What is the test code and test system? The code you posted here works for me on Windows.
