Bug #47374 for IO-Socket-Multicast: Client Multicast bug

Subject:

Client Multicast bug

I couldn't get the listener script here: <a href="http://search.cpan.org/%7Elds/IO-Socket-Multicast-1.05/Multicast.pm">http://search.cpan.org/~lds/IO-Socket-Multicast-1.05/Multicast.pm</a> to work on windows. I can send packets using multicast but listening doesn't work I get Unknown Error returned from <cide>mcast_add('233.0.25.1')</code>. I tried using <code>mcast_add('233.0.25.1','eth0')</code>, but of course get an error about not having IO::Interface installed and to use the ip address instead so I then tried <code>mcast_add('233.0.25.1','192.168.1.30')</code>, '192.168.1.30' being my local ip address, and got the Unknown Error error again. I posted on another site about the issue as well: <a href="http://perlguru.com/gforum.cgi?post=38027;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;guest=4901380">http://perlguru.com/gforum.cgi?post=38027;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;guest=4901380</a> but didn't get any replies. It seems like this modual has been completely neglected on windows, and from the post under the bugs section and whatnot it seems like no one is going to work on it anymore. I am just hopeing I am doing something wrong and can get it working without having to wait for/fix the modual.</div>

Hey I just noticed that under the changes page: http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/LDS/IO-Socket-Multicast-1.05/Changes You said 5.8.8 so I uninstalled 5.10.0 build 1005 and installed 5.8.824 and it worked. It would be nice though if you get some time to look at what is the computability issue with the newer verison of perl though, but no biggy I think all my code works in the older version of perl. ~Nathan Bowhay On Fri, Jun 26, 2009 at 10:41 AM, Bugs in IO-Socket-Multicast via RT < bug-IO-Socket-Multicast@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

I've rolled the 1.06_01 changes into 1.07 and posted to CPAN. Let me know if it fixes the compilation issues. On Mon Jul 13 19:15:24 2009, bramble wrote: Show quoted text

1.06_01 was quite broken and didn't pass CPAN Testers, we're still working on this, 1.06_02 out even before your reply :/ Adam K 2009/7/15 Lincoln_D_Stein via RT <bug-IO-Socket-Multicast@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text

please try IO-Socket-Multicast 1.11 if possible. I have seen one other similar instance of mcast_add failing on windows but it generally 'just-works'. If it is still broken for you in 1.11 please let me know.
