Rust interface for the ENet reliable UDP library
ENet must be initialized before use:
let enet = enet::initialize().unwrap();
and will return enet::Error::Initialize if initialization failed or ENet
was already initialized.
From an initialized ENet struct, hosts can be created which will keep the enet context alive as long as references to them or their peers exist:
let enet = enet::initialize().unwrap();
let mut client = enet.client_host_create(
1, // only allow 1 outgoing connection (peer)
None, // allow any amount of in-flight reliable downstream bandwidth
None // allow any amount of in-flight reliable upstream bandwidth
).unwrap();
let mut server = enet.server_host_create (
address, // address to bind the server host to
32, // allow up to 32 clients and/or outgoing connections (peers)
Some (2), // allow up to 2 channels to be used, 0 and 1
None, // allow any amount of in-flight reliable downstream bandwidth
None // allow any amount of in-flight reliable upstream bandwidth
).unwrap();
A "client" is just a server that is not intended to listen for incoming connections. The number of channels used is always determined by the server-end of a connection.
