Instead of /// connecting once to a remote host, like TCP sockets, /// it can send to and receive from any host at any time. /// /// It is a datagram protocol: bounded blocks of data (datagrams) /// are transfered over the network rather than a continuous /// stream of data (TCP). Therefore, one call to send will always /// match one call to receive (if the datagram is not lost), /// with the same data that was sent. /// /// The UDP protocol is lightweight but unreliable. Unreliable /// means that datagrams may be duplicated, be lost or /// arrive reordered. However, if a datagram arrives, its /// data is guaranteed to be valid. /// /// UDP is generally used for real-time communication /// (audio or video streaming, real-time games, etc.) where /// speed is crucial and lost data doesn't matter much. /// /// Sending and receiving data can use either the low-level /// or the high-level functions. The low-level functions /// process a raw sequence of bytes, whereas the high-level /// interface uses packets (see sf::Packet), which are easier /// to use and provide more safety regarding the data that is /// exchanged. You can look at the sf::Packet class to get /// more details about how they work. /// /// It is important to note that UdpSocket is unable to send /// datagrams bigger than MaxDatagramSize. In this case, it /// returns an error and doesn't send anything. This applies /// to both raw data and packets. Indeed, even packets are /// unable to split and recompose data, due to the unreliability /// of the protocol (dropped, mixed or duplicated datagrams may /// lead to a big mess when trying to recompose a packet). /// /// If the socket is bound to a port, it is automatically /// unbound from it when the socket is destroyed. However, /// you can unbind the socket explicitely with the Unbind /// function if necessary, to stop receiving messages or /// make the port available for other sockets. /// /// Usage example: /// \code /// // ----- The client ----- /// /// // Create a socket and bind it to the port 55001 /// sf::UdpSocket socket; /// socket.bind(55001); /// /// // Send a message to 192.168.1.50 on port 55002 /// std::string message = "Hi, I am " + sf::IpAddress::getLocalAddress().toString(); /// socket.send(message.c_str(), message.size() + 1, "192.168.1.50", 55002); /// /// // Receive an answer (most likely from 192.168.1.50, but could be anyone else) /// char buffer[1024]; /// std::size_t received = 0; /// sf::IpAddress sender; /// unsigned short port; /// socket.receive(buffer, sizeof(buffer), received, sender, port); /// std::cout << sender.ToString() << " said: " << buffer << std::endl; /// /// // ----- The server ----- /// /// // Create a socket and bind it to the port 55002 /// sf::UdpSocket socket; /// socket.bind(55002); /// /// // Receive a message from anyone /// char buffer[1024]; /// std::size_t received = 0; /// sf::IpAddress sender; /// unsigned short port; /// socket.receive(buffer, sizeof(buffer), received, sender, port); /// std::cout << sender.ToString() << " said: " << buffer << std::endl; /// /// // Send an answer /// std::string message = "Welcome " + sender.toString(); /// socket.send(message.c_str(), message.size() + 1, sender, port); /// \endcode /// /// \see sf::Socket, sf::TcpSocket, sf::Packet /// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
