[1.8.9] Problem with sending BlockPos

[MrRiegel]

hi,

I need to send a BlockPos from server to client.

I use SimpleNetworkWrapper.

 

//test
BlockPos zz = new BlockPos(3, 435, 12);

@Override
public void fromBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
	this.zz = new Gson().fromJson(ByteBufUtils.readUTF8String(buf),
			new TypeToken<BlockPos>() {
			}.getType());
	System.out.println("from: " + this.zz);
}

@Override
public void toBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
	ByteBufUtils.writeUTF8String(buf, new Gson().toJson(this.zz));
	System.out.println("to: " + this.zz);

}

 

It works fine on client.

[19:42:11] [server thread/INFO] [sTDOUT]: [mrriegel.ifinder.SyncMessage:toBytes:82]: to: BlockPos{x=3, y=435, z=12}
[19:42:11] [Netty Local Client IO #0/INFO] [sTDOUT]: [mrriegel.ifinder.SyncMessage:fromBytes:75]: from: BlockPos{x=3, y=435, z=12}

 

But on server it doesn't work.

[19:48:52] [server thread/INFO] [sTDOUT]: [mrriegel.ifinder.SyncMessage:toBytes:82]: to: BlockPos{x=3, y=435, z=12}
[19:48:52] [Netty Epoll Client IO #1/INFO] [sTDOUT]: [mrriegel.ifinder.SyncMessage:fromBytes:75]: from: BlockPos{x=0, y=0, z=0}

 

I hope someone can help

A blockpos is just 3 ints... why are you using json?

[MrRiegel]

Actually it is a list of BlockPos.

The result is the same. Every BlockPos is 0,0,0

[Failender]

sending a list is pretty easy. just send the size of the list first, after that iterate over the list and send each of the 3 ints of the blockpos. when reconstructing the list just read the first int, you know the size of the list, after that iterate over the size and create x blockpos

public class SyncMessage implements IMessage,
	IMessageHandler<SyncMessage, IMessage> {
List<BlockPos> lis;

public SyncMessage() {
}

public SyncMessage(EntityPlayer player) {
	ItemFinder.lis = new ArrayList<BlockPos>();
	int range = ItemFinder.range;
	for (int i = -range; i <= range; i++)
		for (int j = -range; j <= range; j++)
			for (int k = -range; k <= range; k++) {
				BlockPos pos = new BlockPos(i + player.posX, j
						+ player.posY, k + player.posZ);
				if (player.worldObj.getTileEntity(pos) instanceof IInventory) {
					IInventory inv = (IInventory) player.worldObj
							.getTileEntity(pos);
					for (int ii = 0; ii < inv.getSizeInventory(); ii++) {
						if (inv.getStackInSlot(ii) != null
								&& inv.getStackInSlot(ii).isItemEqual(
										player.getHeldItem())) {
							ItemFinder.lis.add(pos);
							break;
						}
					}
				}
			}
	lis = new ArrayList<BlockPos>(ItemFinder.lis);
}

@Override
public IMessage onMessage(final SyncMessage message, MessageContext ctx) {
	IThreadListener mainThread = Minecraft.getMinecraft();
	mainThread.addScheduledTask(new Runnable() {
		@Override
		public void run() {
				ItemFinder.lis = new ArrayList<BlockPos>(message.lis);
		}
	});
	return null;
}


@Override
public void fromBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
	this.lis = new Gson().fromJson(ByteBufUtils.readUTF8String(buf),
			new TypeToken<List<BlockPos>>() {
			}.getType());
}

@Override
public void toBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
	ByteBufUtils.writeUTF8String(buf, new Gson().toJson(this.lis));
}

}

 

@failender

thanks, I'm gonna try this

You are using a static field, immediate red flag. Do not share state between client & server thread unless you absolutely, seriously 120% know what you are doing with multithreading.

 

And even then I would be suspicious
