How do I send an array over the network?

Questions & Answers

Ive got an array of (string) player names that exist in my masterAdmiServer. I need the masterAdminServer to send the names to the player so the player can check to see if the name they entered is a registered username. I know how to send a single string over the network, but I need to send string Names; to the players. Ive tried it several different ways and get a variety of errors. C#

Hey…we can’t send an array over network, thats why we are having collections, try to send an Object of collection like List, Set… Thanks

Make your array a single string by concatenating them all in one:

void SendArray(string[] str)
{
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("");
    foreach(string s in str)
    {
         sb.Append(s+"_");
    }
    string newString = sb.ToString();
    // Send your string over the network
}

Then you can retrieve on the other side:

string [] SplitToArray(string str)
{
    return str.Split('_');
}
