how to clear receive buffer in winsock

91
Hi,

My application is communicate with a network device by transmit and receive string on network. I had a problem, after received 20 or 30 string, it looks like the receive buffer always contains the previous string, new coming string just appended to the receive buffer. is there any way to clear the buffer? I'm using winsock.getdada(String) upon receive data. Or any flag I can clear if an error happen? Thanks
