it seems the behaviour of the Classpath implementaiton of datagram
sockets and sending broadcast messages is different from the
implementation in the Sun JDK API. I detected that the Sun
implementation set the socket option SO_BROADCAST for a datagram
socket by default. Thus a broadcast message can be send via
DatagramSocket.send(). With the current Classpath implementation
I get an error code "permission denied" (after some tries, because
all errors during a send()-call are mapped to an "internal error
only" - which is not very useful). By adding setsockopt(...,SO_BROADCASST,...) in the function _javanet_create()
is seems to run. Is this modification ok?
Sincerely,
Torsten
