[Gambas-user] not able to send UDP datagram on local host

[pflora at libero.it]

Following your advice I got the UDPSocket sending data.
Strange thing is that I was testing the output with the command

sudo tcpdump -X port 50010

and nothing was on the screen.
Then I put a node-red UDP listener and I receive the data but still no output from tcpdump.

With 2 applications written in C sending to ports 50000 and 50001 I can trace UDP packets with tcpdump but not the ones sent with gambas on port 50010.
I was tricked by this strange behaviour.
