Public Methods

 UDPDuplex (const InetAddress &bind, tpport_t port)
 Create a UDP duplex as a pair of UDP simplex objects bound to alternating and interconnected port addresses.

Error connect (const InetHostAddress &host, tpport_t port)
 Associate the duplex with a specified peer host.

Error disconnect (void)
 Disassociate this duplex from any host connection.


Detailed Description

UDP duplex connections impliment a bi-directional point-to-point UDP session between two peer hosts. Unreliable Datagram Peer Associations.

Two UDP sockets are typically used on alternating port addresses to assure that sender and receiver data does not collide or echo back. A UDP Duplex is commonly used for full duplex real-time streaming of UDP data between hosts.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ost::UDPDuplex::UDPDuplex const InetAddress   bind,
tpport_t    port
 

Create a UDP duplex as a pair of UDP simplex objects bound to alternating and interconnected port addresses.

Parameters:
bind  address to bind this socket to.
port  number to bind sender.


Member Function Documentation

Error ost::UDPDuplex::connect const InetHostAddress   host,
tpport_t    port
 

Associate the duplex with a specified peer host.

Both the sender and receiver will be interconnected with the remote host.

Returns:
0 on success, error code on error.
Parameters:
host  address to connect socket to.
port  number to connect socket to.

Reimplemented from ost::UDPTransmit.

Error ost::UDPDuplex::disconnect void   
 

Disassociate this duplex from any host connection.

No data should be read or written until a connection is established.

Returns:
0 on success, error code on error.

Reimplemented from ost::UDPTransmit.
