It doesn't appear that getPixel works correctly on the secondary monitor in dual monitor setup, it returns 255,255,255 regardless of the actual color of the pixel.

Here is the code I used to test.


function main()
while(1) do
hwnd = foregroundWindow();
if (hwnd ~= 0) then
hdc = openDC(hwnd ...

danke! that was it. I think it is a sign I need to go to bed tonight

I was making a class to wrap the window related functions:


CWindow = class(
function(self, windowTitle)
self.win = nil;
print(self);
print(windowTitle);
self.title = windowTitle;
print(self.title);
end
);

function CWindow:getWin()
print(self);
print(self.win);
print(self.title);
if ...

Was kind of thinking it would be cool if the main parts of MM were written as modules .. keyboard/mouse, memory, etc. then could just use it on standard Lua distribution and mix-and-match the parts you need... guess you can still do that to an extent with MM.

Not really, no. "default" is always available, so that would be a "valid" encryption key. In the case that you used two different encryption keys, it would just result in a loss of data/malformed packets, but you should* be able to connect.

*I'm not entirely sure about this. I expect that the ...

very basic but it works.


CNetworkServer = class(
function (self)
netPushKey("encryptionKey", "12345");
end
);

function CNetworkServer:start()
listen = netOpenCon("0.0.0.0:62751", "encryptionKey");

if( netListen(listen) ~= 0 ) then
printf("Error making connection.\n");
end
while (1) do ...

and I'm an idiot...
should have been does the network provide any kind of error so that I would have known that it was the wrong encryption key?

client:connect("128.0.0.1:62751");
I think that's your problem there. I think you meant 127.0.0.1. You should also specify the listen port in the server so you can be sure that you are attempting to connect to the right port.

Thanks, that was a quick typo because I didnt want to paste my actual ...

So I'm trying to create a client/server with MicroMacro but I'm not getting a connection. I've disable windows Firewall so I don't believe that is the problem. The netserver says waiting for connection and the netclient says attempting connection..

Here is the network server code:
