IPCSocket and ReadAll

[Jean-Luc Arnaud]

Hi all,

I have some issues with IPCSockets and would like to be sure I have well
understood how it works.
When using ReadAll, is the buffer emptied? Or could next ReadAll command
returns same text, eventually completed by new text sent to the buffer?

If ReadAll does not empty the buffer, what's the appropriate command?

TIA

Hello Jean-Luc,

ReadAll indeed empties the internal buffer. The LookAhead command, on the other hand, returns the buffer without clearing it.
