Code dependencies:

• ASIO >= 1.29.0
• Cmake >= 3.16.3

---

To build client and server,

mkdir build && cmake -B build && cd build && make

For now commands and arguements can be sent between the client and server. The IP address and port are hardcoded in the server.cpp and client.cpp

Client: Connects to a server running at given IP and port.

TCPConnection server(io_context, "127.0.0.1", 12345, false);

Server: Connects to the specified IP address and port.

TCPConnection server(io_context, "127.0.0.1", 12345, true);

After building the server GramsReadoutConnect can be started, followed by the client GramsReadoutClient. Both client and server have a menu where you can either send or read commands.

Select a command:
  [0] Send Cmd
  [1] Read Cmd
  [2] Read All Cmd
  [-1] Exit
Enter choice:

If option [0] is selected it is followed by the prompt to enter a command, followed by a prompt for a space separated list of arguements.

Enter Cmd:  4
Enter Arg: 
Enter numbers in one line: 942 832 95

Option [1] reads out a single command from the bufffer with its associated arguements while [2] reads out all commands in the buffer.
