Here's a link to that thread about the SO_BROADCAST option...

hi,

Can anyone advise on whether it's possible to do UDP broadcast (e.g. to 255.255.255.255 or more limited IP ranges) from netsend~ (by Olaf Matthes), or even netsend or other network objects?

I've tried this and have not had any luck.
I get this error:
"connecting stream socket: Permission denied (13)"

I then looked at the code of netsend~.
I'm using an updated version available (with source) at:
http://www.remu.fr/sound-delta/netsend~/

After some googling around about the (13) error, I tried setting SO_BROADCAST, which it seems might be necessary to enable broadcast mode.
This didn't help - I still get the permission denied message.

I have then tried several other network objects, like netsend (control data version), and have had no luck. If I could get any of these going in broadcast mode, I might be able to modify code to make something work.

I've found some Pd list posts about broadcast working, but haven't been able to duplicate these results.
e.g.

I've been working on a simple 192.168.x.x network between 2 computers, with direct message sending working without problems.

I think I'm stuck for further ideas to get broadcast working...

Can anyone suggest a solution - or even a next move?!

cheers
