[ENet-discuss] Extracting Packet data

[Ruud van Gaal]

The simplest would be just to use something like 'char buf[256];
sprintf(buf,"My message");' and send the whole 256 bytes. However, this
assumes packet size and flexibility aren't issues. If you want to send more
flexible data than that, indeed look up serializing on Google.
