I suppose you mean 0x20-0x7f (since 0x1e is less than 0x20)? Yes, and in addition to that it also discards 0x80-0xff. > I would remove that if-line (and also the wrong comments that talks > about responses but means requests). No, it does mean responses. In the case that we've timed out waiting for a response it is possible that we still receive it later (if we time out while the packet is already on its way to us). This test is meant to discard such packets (i.e. any packet that isn't an obvious command). > OTOH, the reserved and user-defined packets will fail immediately > after that anyway due to the check of the length of non-header data > returning -1 for those cases. For this one possible solution is to add the capability for defining custom header offsets for user-defined opcodes. But we'll do that only once someone has a real use-case for it and requests the feature. > Not only that but it immediately drops connection because of that? It > could at least get the packet and send a negative response. That's true, an error response could be added instead of discarding the connection as unusable. One question to answer though is should we inform the application about this somehow. Johan
