http://gambaswiki.org/bugtracker/edit?object=BUG.1874&from=L21haW4-

Paolo FLORA reported a new bug.

Summary
-------

not able to send UDP datagram on local host

Type             : Request
Priority         : Medium
Gambas version   : 3.15
Product          : Networking components


Description
-----------

I put an UDPSocket component on a form and with a button I am trying to send a message in localhost to port 50010 but nothing is coming out.

I need it for cross communication between different applications on localhost.

Documentation is not clear and no examples found.

Code:

Public Sub Button_1_Click()

  Dim sBuf As String

  sBuf = "Test-1"

' if I omit Begin I receive an error from IDE
  UdpCmd.Begin
  
  Write #UdpCmd, sBuf, Len(sBuf)

End

Properties:
Path           empty
Port           50010
TargetHost     empty
TargetPort     0
Broadcast      False

What is the right way to do this ?

Thanks
