Detailed Description

Defines the ACE socket wrapper for UDP/IP multicast.

Supports multiple simultaneous subscriptions, unsubscription from one or all subscriptions, and independent send/recv address and interface specifications. Template parameters and/or ctor arguments determine per-instance optional functionality.

Note that multicast semantics and implementation details are _very_ environment-specific; this class is just a wrapper around the underlying implementation and does not try to normalize the concept of multicast communications.

Usage Notes:

• Send and Recv addresses and network interfaces, but not port#, are independent. While this instance is open, 1 send interface (and a default send address) is in effect and 0, 1, or multiple recv addresses/interfaces are in effect.
• The first / invocation defines the network interface and default address used for all sends by this instance, defines the port# and optionally the multicast address bound to the underlying socket, and defines the (one) port# that is used for all subscribes (subsequent subscribes must pass the same port# or '0').
• The default loopback state is not explicitly set; the environment will determine the default state. Note that some environments (e.g. some Win32) do not allow the default to be changed, and that the semantics of loopback control are environment dependent (e.g. sender vs receiver control).
• In general, due to multicast design and implementation quirks/bugs, it is difficult to tell which address a received message was sent to or which interface it was received on (even if only one subscription is active). However; there are filtering options that can be applied, to narrow it down considerably.

Interface specification notes (for and ):

• If net_if == 0, the null_iface_opt option determines whether only the system "default" interface or all interfaces is affected. Specifying "all" interfaces is supported only for environments for which <ACE_Sock_Connect::get_ip_interfaces> is properly implemented.
• Multiple subscriptions for the same address but different interfaces is normally supported, but re-subscription to an address/interface that is already subscribed is normally not allowed.
• The interface specification syntax is environment-specific. UNIX systems will normally use device specifications such as "le0" or "elxl1", while other systems will use the IP address of the interface. Some platforms, such as pSoS, support only cardinal numbers as network interface specifications; for these platforms, just give these numbers in alphanumeric form and will convert them into numbers via <ACE_OS::atoi>.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast::options

Option parameters. These control per-instance optional functionality. They are set via optional constructor arguments.

Default values are always valid values for the compilation environment. Enumeration values: OPT_BINDADDR_NO  Disable address bind. (Bind only port.). OPT_BINDADDR_YES  Enable address bind.

This method is optional; if not explicitly invoked, it is invoked by the first , using the subscribed address/port# and network interface paramters. The parameter defines the default send address/port# and also the port# and, if the OPT_BINDADDR_YES option is used, the multicast address that is bound to this socket. If the parameter != 0, it defines the network interface used for all sends by this instance, otherwise the system "default" interface is used. (The parameter is ignored if this feature is not supported by the envriornment.) The port# in may be 0, in which case a system-assigned (ephemeral) port# is used for sending and receiving. If != 0, the SO_REUSEADDR option and, if it is supported, the SO_REUSEPORT option are enabled. Returns: -1 if the call fails. Failure can occur due to problems with the address, port#, and/or interface parameters or during system open() or socket option processing.

The given group is joined on the specified interface. If option OPT_NULLIFACE_ALL is used and is = 0, the group is joined on all multicast capable interfaces (IFF supported). Multiple subscriptions to various address and interface combinations are supported and tracked.

int ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast::unsubscribe (  void   )

Unsubscribe all current subscriptions. Unsubscribe all active group/interface subscriptions (if any). Returns -1 if any unsubscribe failed, 0 if there are no errors or no current subscriptions. Deprecated: This method has been deprecated. Since a list of groups is not maintained (except when ACE_SOCK_DGRAM_MCAST_DUMPABLE is defined), it isn't possible to unsubscribe to all the groups without closing the socket. Therefore, if applications wish to unsubscribe to all groups without closing the socket, they much keep track of the subscriptions and call the above unsubscribe () for each.

int ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast::unsubscribe (  const ACE_INET_Addr &  mcast_addr, const ACE_TCHAR *  net_if = 0, int  protocol_family = PF_INET, int  protocol = 0 )

The specified group/interface combination is unsubscribed. If option OPT_NULLIFACE_ALL is used and is = 0, the group is unsubscribed from all interfaces (IFF supported). Returns: -1 if the unsubscribe failed. Most environments will return -1 if there was no active subscription for this address/interface combination. An error is unconditionally returned if option OPT_NULLIFACE_ALL is used, is = 0, and <ACE_Sock_Connect::get_ip_interfaces> is not implemented in this environment (_even if_ the specifies a non- NULL ). Deprecated: This method has been deprecated. Please use leave() instead. In addition, and have no effect.
