Fast question about a packet

Also, your myPacket.insertDWORD("whateverNTstringyouneedtosend"); wouldn't work at all. I assume insertDWORD takes an unsigned long (hence insertdword), not a string pointer. Putting that code in would result in an error. For inserting NT strings, you should check out mypacket.insertNTString.

Actually, since strings manifest as pointers to chars, and pointers are 32-bit integers, it would write to the packet the address in memory of the string literal. You definitely don't want to do that.

If he writes an explicit cast to that parameter- and since he didn't in the code he spat out, it'd just error.

On my computer, pointers can be 64-bit integers.
