As always, full code description and documentation on github https://github.com/nucleoType98/Unix_Client_Socket.git

Simple Connection

Code

#include "client.cpp"

using namespace ClientSocket;

// command line arguments are used to sent data directly from the command line
int main(int argc, char **argv) {

  Socket *SocketConnection = new Socket();

  SocketConnection->set_end_point_ip("127.0.0.1");
  SocketConnection->set_end_point_port(3300);  

  // connect with persistence, meaning if the connection fails, it will try to connect  again using the value supplied
  // by SocketConnection->set_connection_exe_max(10000)
  SocketConnection->create_connection(ClientSocket::CONNECTION_MODE::PERSISTENT);

  delete SocketConnection;
  return 0;
}

More Configurations

Code

#include "client.cpp"

using namespace ClientSocket;

// command line arguments are used to sent data directly from the command line
int main(int argc, char **argv) {

  Socket *SocketConnection = new Socket();

  SocketConnection->set_end_point_ip("127.0.0.1");      // set the end point ip address
  SocketConnection->set_end_point_port(3300);           // set the end point port number

  SocketConnection->set_connection_exe_max(10000);      // set maximum number of connection tries before aborting
  SocketConnection->set_connection_exe_speed(100000);   // set connection execution speed

// connect with persistence, meaning if the connection fails, it will try to connect  again using the value supplied by SocketConnection->set_connection_exe_max(10000)
  SocketConnection->create_connection(ClientSocket::CONNECTION_MODE::PERSISTENT);

  if (SocketConnection->is_connected()) {

      SocketConnection->send_message("Something to send to the server");

      SocketConnection->send_encrypted_message("Demo Encrypted Payload Data", 10); // send encrypted data, using a key value = 10, decryption must be handled on server side

      SocketConnection->send_message_as_cli_arg(argc, argv); // send message supplied by command line args

      SocketConnection->commander_mode(); // wait for data exchange from server, uses a detached thread

      SocketConnection->disconnect(); // disconnect from server
  }

  delete SocketConnection;

  return 0;
}

What were the hardest parts?

quick heads up, your client.hpp file is blank, not sure if you know that:

there are times where I'm spending more time on the github readme.md than the code and I have to ask myself, "should I be doing this???" - for the record my answer is Yes, because it's a record of what it is, and 99.99% of the time I write good comments/docs, I appreciate it later, so I always try to spend the time. Anytime I skip the commenting/documentation process, I regret it later usually.
