Sending tuples via bluetooth?

[McLightning]

hi everybody
lately im working on an exciting project
but i got a problem about about sending two variables at same time via bluez module
therefore,i need to send these two variables as a tuple object , i guess

infact i found a way send two variables at same time as string but it's too laggy and sometimes causing errors
here is my solution which is so laggy:
on client:
def senderfunction():
socket.send(str(a)+' '+str(b))
on server:
a=int(incomingdata[0:3])
b=int(incomingdata[4:len(incomingdata)]

variable a and b are numbers between -99 and +99
please help

Hello McLightning, welcome "a discussion board"

Suggestions, following your initial approach (I am supposing that a and b are numbers):

Sender:

msg = "%d %d" % (a,b) # space is the field delimiter !
sock.send(msg)

Decoding at receiver:

msg = msg.split() # space is the field delimiter !
a = int(msg[0])
b = int(msg[1])

However, take care when receiving, ensure recv got all expected bytes. socket.makefile() is available for TCP/P sockets. If it is available for bluetooth sockets as well I recommend to use it instead recv/send since you will have a better flow control for text oriented messages.

If you want something more sophisticated, I recommend simplejson. Using simplejson you can serialize complete objects instead only string. You will find a example in the thread.
