TalkNet

TalkNet is an online IPv4 communicator written with Qt. It provides both the server and the client programs which can be installed separately.

Dependencies

• SocketIO
• Qt 5.11.3
• A compiler supporting C++11

Obtain

git clone https://github.com/dak98/TalkNet.git

Install the server [client]

cd server [client]
mkdir build
cd build
qmake ../server.pro [../client.pro]
make

Usage

Both the server and the client have two windows:

• a display window showing the overall trafic (server) or incoming messages (client) on the left,
• a console to issue commands on the right.

Server

The server can list all the connected clients and send messages to them. You also see the trafic between clients.

Client

The clients are able to communicate between each other via the SENDTO command. To message yourself, use the ECHO command. Type INFO to display your ID.

If wrong syntax is used (e.g. wrong number of parameters), an appropriate error message is shown.
