Detailed Description

The KGameNetwork class is the KGame class with network support.

All other features are the same but they are now network transparent. It is not used directly but only via a KGame object. So you do not really have to bother with this object.

The main KDE game object

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ KGameNetwork()

KGameNetwork::KGameNetwork ( int cookie = 42,
QObject * parent = nullptr )
explicit

Create a KGameNetwork object.

Definition at line 41 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ ~KGameNetwork()

Member Function Documentation

◆ aboutToLoseConnection

void KGameNetwork::aboutToLoseConnection ( quint32 id)
protectedslot

Called when the network connection is about to terminate.

Is used to store the network parameter like the game id

Definition at line 315 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ connectToServer() [1/2]

bool KGameNetwork::connectToServer ( const QString & host,
quint16 port )

Inits a network game as a network CLIENT.

Parameters
hostthe host to which we want to connect
portthe port we want to connect to
Returns
true if connected

Definition at line 193 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ connectToServer() [2/2]

bool KGameNetwork::connectToServer ( KMessageIO * connection)

}

Definition at line 207 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ cookie()

int KGameNetwork::cookie ( ) const

Application cookie.

this identifies the game application. It help to distinguish between e.g. KPoker and KWin4

Returns
the application cookie

Definition at line 79 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ Debug()

void KGameNetwork::Debug ( )
virtual

Gives debug output of the game status.

Reimplemented in KGame.

Definition at line 496 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ disconnect()

void KGameNetwork::disconnect ( )

Disconnect the current connection and establish a new local one.

Definition at line 273 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ electAdmin()

void KGameNetwork::electAdmin ( quint32 clientID)

If you are the ADMIN of the game you can give the ADMIN status away to another client.

Use this e.g. if you want to quit the game or if you want another client to administrate the game (note that disconnect calls this automatically).

Parameters
clientIDthe ID of the new ADMIN (note: this is the _client_ID which has nothing to do with the player IDs. See KMessageServer)

Definition at line 327 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ gameId()

quint32 KGameNetwork::gameId ( ) const

The unique ID of this game.

Returns
int id

Definition at line 67 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ hostName()

QString KGameNetwork::hostName ( ) const
Returns
The name of the host that we are currently connected to is isNetwork is TRUE and we are not the MASTER, i.e. if connectToServer was called. Otherwise this will return "localhost".

Definition at line 252 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ isAdmin()

bool KGameNetwork::isAdmin ( ) const

The admin of a game is the one who initializes newly connected clients using negotiateNetworkGame and is allowed to configure the game.

E.g. only the admin is allowed to use KGame::setMaxPlayers.

If one KGame object in the game is MASTER then this client is the admin as well. isMaster and isAdmin differ only if the KMessageServer is running in an own process.

Returns
Whether this client (KGame object) is the admin

Definition at line 89 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ isMaster()

bool KGameNetwork::isMaster ( ) const

Is this the game MASTER (i.e.

has started theKMessageServer). A game has always exactly one MASTER. This is either a KGame object (i.e. a Client) or an own MessageServer-process. A KGame object that has the MASTER status is always admin.

You probably don't want to use this. It is a mostly internal method which will probably become protected. Better use isAdmin

See also
isAdmin
Returns
Whether this client has started the KMessageServer

Definition at line 84 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ isNetwork()

bool KGameNetwork::isNetwork ( ) const
Returns
TRUE if this is a network game - i.e. you are either MASTER or connected to a remote MASTER.

Definition at line 62 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ isOfferingConnections()

bool KGameNetwork::isOfferingConnections ( ) const

Are we still offer offering server connections - only for game MASTER.

Returns
true/false

Definition at line 268 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ lock()

void KGameNetwork::lock ( )
virtual

You should call this before doing thigs like, e.g.

qApp->processEvents(). Don't forget to call unlock once you are done!

See also
KMessageClient::lock

Definition at line 353 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ messageClient()

KMessageClient * KGameNetwork::messageClient ( ) const

Don't use this unless you really know what you're doing! You might experience some strange behaviour if you send your messages directly through the KMessageClient!

Returns
a pointer to the KMessageClient used internally to send the messages. You should rather use one of the send functions!

Definition at line 94 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ messageServer()

KMessageServer * KGameNetwork::messageServer ( ) const

Don't use this unless you really know what you are doing! You might experience some strange behaviour if you use the message server directly!

Returns
a pointer to the message server if this is the MASTER KGame object. Note that it might be possible that no KGame object contains the KMessageServer at all! It might even run stand alone!

Definition at line 99 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ networkTransmission()

virtual void KGameNetwork::networkTransmission ( QDataStream & ,
int ,
quint32 ,
quint32 ,
quint32 clientID )
pure virtual

Called by ReceiveNetworkTransmission().

Will be overwritten by KGame and handle the incoming message.

Implemented in KGame.

◆ offerConnections()

bool KGameNetwork::offerConnections ( quint16 port)

Inits a network game as network MASTER.

Note that if the KMessageServer is not yet started it will be started here (see setMaster). Any existing connection will be disconnected.

If you already offer connections the port is changed.

Parameters
portThe port on which the service is offered
Returns
true if it worked

Definition at line 163 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ port()

quint16 KGameNetwork::port ( ) const
Returns
The port we are listening to if offerConnections was called or the port we are connected to if connectToServer was called. Otherwise 0.

Definition at line 240 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ receiveNetworkTransmission

void KGameNetwork::receiveNetworkTransmission ( const QByteArray & a,
quint32 clientID )
protectedslot

Called by KMessageClient::broadcastReceived() and will check if the message format is valid.

If it is not, it will generate an error (see signalNetworkVersionError and signalNetworkErorrMessage). If it is valid, the pure virtual method networkTransmission() is called. (This one is overwritten in KGame.)

Definition at line 459 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ sendError()

void KGameNetwork::sendError ( int error,
const QByteArray & message,
quint32 receiver = 0,
quint32 sender = 0 )

Sends a network message.

Parameters
errorThe error code
messageThe error message - use KGameError
receiverthe KGame / KPlayer this message is for. 0 For all
senderThe KGame / KPlayer this message is from (i.e. you). You probably want to leave this 0, then KGameNetwork will create the correct value for you. You might want to use this if you send a message from a specific player.

Definition at line 449 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ sendMessage() [1/4]

bool KGameNetwork::sendMessage ( const QByteArray & buffer,
int msgid,
quint32 receiver = 0,
quint32 sender = 0 )

Send a network message msg with a given message ID msgid to all clients.

You want to use this to send a message to the clients.

Note that a message is always sent to ALL clients! This is necessary so that all clients always have the same data and can easily be changed from network to non-network without restarting the game. If you want a specific KGame / KPlayer to react to the message use the receiver and sender parameters. See KGameMessage::calsMessageId

SendMessage differs from sendSystemMessage only by the msgid parameter. sendSystemMessage is thought as a KGame only method while sendMessage is for public use. The msgid parameter will be +=KGameMessage::IdUser and in KGame::signalNetworkData msgid will be -= KGameMessage::IdUser again, so that one can easily distinguish between system and user messages.

Use sendSystemMessage to communicate with KGame (e.g. by adding a player) and sendMessage for your own user message.

Note: a player should send messages through a KGameIO!

Parameters
bufferthe message which will be send. See messages.txt for contents
msgidan id for this message. See KGameMessage::GameMessageIds
receiverthe KGame / KPlayer this message is for.
senderThe KGame / KPlayer this message is from (i.e. you). You probably want to leave this 0, then KGameNetwork will create the correct value for you. You might want to use this if you send a message from a specific player.
Returns
true if worked

Definition at line 444 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

Definition at line 105 of file kgamenetwork.cpp.

◆ setMaxClients()

void KGameNetwork::setMaxClients ( int max)

Changes the maximal connection number of the KMessageServer to max.
