Hi, i need some help to figure out how to implement a kind of datastructure where, for now, three input/output sources a able to interchange data. For example A writes to B, C reads from B and C writes to A and so on. Currently my approach is doing a lot of switch/case or if/else that not really handy. Like to have something more elegant.

What I have tried:

nothing special and spreed around multiple c/h files

Solution 1

Best is to implement some common data structure like a struct which has zero when no data, or use some data file like jason or xml.
tip: always handle

C++

else

or the

C++

default

in a switch to avoid unhandled cases.

You write that the data comes from multiple iOS devices that should be able to send as well as receive.
Unfortunately, some important details are missing. You didn't describe how the devices find each other, or if it's a fixed set of known devices at startup. of known devices. Is there a maximum length for the messages? Should the exchange be blocking or asynchronous? Should they be sent and received simultaneously?

Before you solve something like this yourself with threads and synchronization, or install a web server on each computer, you could check if it can be solved e.g. with MPI.
