Multicast socket issue

Post by Hiryuu »

Hello,

I have an issue with the networking part of an application. This application is using UDP multicast sockets. It seems that the transmitting part is working well (I can receive the packets on Windows just fine) but I don't receive anything on Wine.

I tried on the 1.4.1 and the 1.5.30 but I'm aiming for the 1.4.1 because of some other compatibility issues and I would like to keep it if possible. I saw that there was a patch for the multicast issue but it is quite old and I do not know if the work around has changed (http://www.spinics.net/linux/lists/wine/msg08900.html).

It is a common implementation of multicast sockets but if necessery I can give the sources.

That patch was committed over 10 years ago. http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/c ... cdf547d90b

We are now in code freeze for 1.6, so I wouldn't waste my time with 1.4. What you should do is test 1.6-rc1, and if the problem persists, file a bug.
