MooClick "source" question

[Blizna]

Hi, I would need to know how MooClick recognize the beginning of each packet, for example if I send 3 messages on the same subchannel, how mooclick finds the beginning and the end of each of them? I think the point of the proccess, not related to MMF. I hope you understand, thank you

Best person to ask (bsdies 3EE) is Andrew, as he made the MooJava implementation.

All communication in Moo Click contains an additional single byte header which allows identification of the type of message being sent. If the message contains none fixed size data then before that data a 4 byte int field is stored before the content so that Moo knows how many bytes to read and hence knows when it hits the end of a message.
