How would I go about the logic of creating a protocol?


RE: Now.... - Qwertygiy - 09-14-2011

As in a totally new programming language?


RE: Now.... - noob007 - 09-14-2011

A protocol. You mean a network protocol?


RE: Now.... - Dignity - 09-15-2011

Yep...

something like rbxasset

rbxasset isn't a network protocol, or even a protocol handler. I think it's the same as resource:// in Buildism or chrome:// in Firefox; it just tells the program to look for a file in a particular location.

If you want to register a protocol handler (steam://, irc://, and so on) so you can make it possible for users to click links on a website to launch your program, that is possible too.

And a network protocol is just the way a client and server program communicate; if you make a program that uses networking then you've created a protocol.

Resource I'm guessing.
