DS Wifi21 Mar 2006 03:04 pm
Hi, I’ve not forgotten about the ds wifi lib, I’ve just been busy with other things, and working on the features for the next version of the lib. Next preview release should have a number of small fixes and speedups, and will also have a complete TCP implementation as well as possibly DHCP.

Davos1: Right now, the lib can ask for a connection from the server side (for example, you can connect to a game). With the completion of TCP, you can now respond to connection attempts (you can host games on the DS). Along with DHCP, which allows you to pick up an IP address without manually configuring anything, this is a real boon to the lib’s functionality.
Never forgetting, of course, that this is just the library: if you want to host a game on the DS, you’ll have to write the game first :)

Hopefully, a semi-complex example of usage of the library will be made soon, wherein the actual use of the library is well isolated from the rest of the program, so that noobs will have a clear picture of what kinds of things actually need to be done and how they’re to go about them.
Of course, I’m perenially kicking the idea around, but since when do I actually get around do doing things?

Stone: yeah, that’s actually a really good idea. Adding a smaller example program to the next lib release won’t actually take long to make, I can add one or 2 more suitable small projects to base projects off of.
