Winsock Issue - need help
Hi:
if the message is incomplete, cal getdata again later, parse it til
the delimeter, and append to the incomplete message
Similiar if the stream gets more than 1 message, parse it til 1st delimeter
is reached, save the rest as beginning of the 2nd mesage, cal getdata again
later, pase til the 2nd message delimeter is reached, appended to the
beginning of the 2nd mesage.
