The write function was always returning the same count of bytes as was passed in because the size variable was not being assigned the actual number of bytes sent. For example, if I am using a WIZNet 5500 (which limits the send size to 2048 bytes) and I call the function as follows:
size_t bytesSent = pClient->write(pBuffer, 8192);The result returned into the variable bytesSent will be 8192, even though only 2048 bytes were actually sent.
The change to
EthernetClient.cppin this fork fixes the bug.
