Socket Management in python
Some examples of uses of udp and tcp sockets in python.
This includes also a small framework to use sockets in an easy way using a custom protocol. The framework includes 3 main abstractions:
protocol: this class defines the way packets are coded and decoded, transmitted and received, independently of the transport protocol (tcp or udp).client: this class is a generic client that handles sending and receiving messages. It can be configured to use udp or tcp.server: this class needs to be developed according to the user needs and transport protocol wanted.
Both client and server classes use the protocol class to be compatible.
