12. Pointer (complex: write - read - unset)

In this test we set up two ServerData objects, one pointing to the other (the small tree). We then send them bottom up, for easy resolving the pointer. Then on the server we tell the pointing object to no longer point at the pointee, and send an update to all connected clients.

Client Application

The client application is almost the same as in the last test.

Server Application

The server in this test creates the two objects, one pointing at the other. Then after a while it tells the pointing object to point at nothing. And sends out updates on the change.
