TCP Socket inside Qt #2

Open KC5-BP opened 2 months ago

KC5-BP commented 2 months ago

Add a simple socket exchange management through the GUI and another program (stored in the "cli" directory)

Socket management
- Define a simple protocol, something like:
- CONNECT (CLI -> GUI) -> ACK_AND_WAITING_DATAS (GUI -> CLI)
- DATA (CLI -> GUI) -> ACK (GUI -> CLI)
  - Format to something like: \<ROUTING_VAR_DATA>N\<NUMBERS_OF_DATA>C\<RGB[W]>! ROUTING_VAR_DATA: 8bits N: 16bits C: 32bits (8b: Red, 8b: Green, 8b: Blue[, 8b: White])
- DISCONNECT (both direction to manage, CLI disconnect OR GUI killed)
- ASK_FOR_STATUS (CLI -> GUI)
  - Possible response: WAITING_DATAS, ERROR
- ERROR (GUI -> CLI)
