# Test Peer-to-Peer

This is an attempt at a very basic peer class that can participate on a Peer-to-Peer( `P2P` ) network.

It will not have peer discovery via `UDP` broadcast, nor will it have any `DHT` features.

Just a simple message exchange protocol in a `P2P` context.

## Todo

- The `TPeer` class, at the moment, does not need to be a thread

- Hook up event for data received from connection thread to the internal peer method

- Add a property to allow hooking to data received from outside of the peer

- Hook up event for connection removal from connection thread to peer

- Understand if a connection needs to be disconnected when being removed

- Implement command line switch `--connect-to`

- Ponder having a Ping/Pong immediately before a connection is about to timeout
