c# - UDP multicasting with IPAddress.Any -
good day all
i going through msdn website try familiarize mystelf multicasting , how works. i'm wondering: when 1 use
ipaddress.any
it refers commented out line this link
//ipaddress localip = ipaddress.any;
i have seen on multiple occasions, ipaddress.any mean?
update
a quick googling reveals:
what's ipaddress.any - msdn forums:
ipaddress.any listen on ip addresses assigned pc. example, if connected network via wireless , wired, there 2 ip addresses assigned. means listen requests on both ip addresses. if take ip of wired receive requests nic.
as can see, specifying address listen on (effectively, equivalent ipaddress.parse("0.0.0.0")
) , not specific multicasting. see how udp multicast across local network in c#? example of latter's implementation.
