does anybody have an idea when (and if) UPD transmissions will officially be implemented in wxWidgets?
i searched the forum and the mailing lists and i only read that people use the undocumented wxDatagramSocket for UDP connections since wxWidgets v2.5x ...
thanks for any information and a happy new year

when UDP in wxWidgets? Topic is solved
Might wanna take a look at the ASIO Library.
Its probably includet in boost soon. And it seems to be able
to handle TCP and UDP Sockets.

wxDatagramSocket works perfectly (or mostly) fine with even extensive usage, as proven by aMule. Now if it would also be documented...

thx leio and phlox81.
ASIO looks very interesting. that exaclty is what i've looked for in the first place. maybe i'll take a look at x- and a-mule too.
anyway, any official news regarding future wxWidget versions?! i assume the unofficial wxDatagramSocket way won't satisfy everyone since it is totally undocumented.

@leio:
this would be great.
@qgranfor:
thx, i already thought about raknet since it got very good reviews from several sites. but i'd like to stay to wx since i use the gui-portion anyway.
@madhan:
after trying and some searching through the forums i got it working. it's really easy and straightforward (if you know what you do). what a pity this isn't documented at all. someone should write a wiki-entry. maybe i'll do ...
