C:/Active/libraries/cxutils/2.0/include/cxutils/networking/udpsharedserver.h File Reference

This file contains software for creating a shared UDP Server service. This type of socket should only be used if you are creating software that requires two applications running on the same host machine to receive Unicast or Unicast and Multicast data simultaneously. If you don't use this class, and you have two applications running at the same time on a single machine and both applications are receiving UDP data on a port, only one of the applications will receive unicast messages sent to your host machine. With this class, you can avoid this issue as long as you don't have other software running that is not using this class to receive UDP data on a specific port. More...
