Ep.11: Client Networking (TCP / UDP) - Network Chat Programming 

After learning a lot from the C++ series, I have come to this old series to learn some Java, as well as learn network programming a bit. As a 1989 baby, I used instant messaging applications a lot when I was a kid (AIM, MSN Messenger, etc...) and ever since the idea that you could program computers yourself was introduced to my noggin, it was always a secret dream of mine to make my own instant messaging application for desktop (fuck mobile. I miss the old internet and old computing of the early 2000s). Anyway, this has been super fun and educational and I just wanted to express my extreme gratitude to "The Cherno". Yan, I can't begin to thank you enough for all of this free education. You are an amazing human being and I'm also a tiny bit wine drunk right now so I apologize if this message is hard to follow or awkward in any way :)

finally getting to the meat and potatoes of this series! lovin it! thanx as ever!

I would still love to see tutorials from you on TCP connections just because I actually want to make other networked programms that would work better with it.

Would love a TCP version at some point, it sounds much more useful and reliable (in a non gaming context)

He went to print the error and RU-vid crashed and now won't skip ahead in the video, ah well it's so good I'll watch half of it again, awesome :D

Remember to leave a like, everybody!

"Does has" My favorite Cherno quote lol

What's next Game Programming im really interested in astar pathfinding and adding lightemitters, and just an extra could you make a topic on reddit or a video about 4 directional movement

You need to be duplicated! =))) It's very helpfull! Many thanks from Vietnam!

It's the internet man, it's mostly free to everyone....

i think it would be better if you created your own exception and threw that if connection failed, instead of returning a boolean.

thanks for making videos cherno your awesome

thanks, good to know i didnt do this!

where r u from? you've accent is really nice :D

TheCherno, if you don't mind (this will really help me by the way), where did you learn programming and networking from? You can message me it, comment me it, it's your choice.

TheChernoProject i was making a 3d game with eclipse following your instructions my computer broke, it had something to do with the graphics card but is there anything i might have done wrong? like not make the game close properly and messing it up. im not blaming you, just a quick question

Yay :D

why did you not just use a BorderLayout instead of all that shit with a grid layout

I actually find UDP very unreliable, and this is why I will have to battle my way at making a server connection side for my game because I don't use data sending that much except for C#

There's nothing you could have done in basic non-native Java that could have affected your hardware. :)

I love your vids, but I'm sick of hearing you say you will make an "in-depth" episode or you will "put out 3 episodes per day" when you don't. Don't say it if you're not going to do it. Just saying.

You can't break your computer by programming in Java. Not your fault. UNless you directly program GPU, than you could break it I think.
