Hiranya Jayathilaka commented on AXIS2-4724:
--------------------------------------------
I was able to add multicast support to the existing UDP sender without much
trouble. But in the listener side I'm facing some issues. The existing listener
is using Java NIO datagram channels to receive UDP messages (java.nio.channels
API). But this API does not support multicasting (see [1][2] for details). It
seems this API will not support multicasting until JDK 1.7.
As a solution I have implemented a new transport listener
(MulticastUDPListener), a new IO dispatcher (MulticastIODispatcher) and a new
endpoint (MulticastEndpoint). Do you see any other way of implementing
multicast support for the listener? Or at least some mechanism for merging the
new IO dispatcher and the endpoint with the existing listener?
