Hi all,

I'm currently have the problem that I try to read UDP messages from multiple sockets in parallel. So let's say I get UDP packets from the same IP on the ports 2000, 2001, 2002,...

Therefore I created the following class.
But if I try to instantiate it several times with different ports I experience that if I get a broadcast message all ports are waking up, the 1st socket is using the message and the others close itself as the buffer is empty.

Does anybody have an idea how to do this in a better way?
I just need non-blocking UDP-receiver that are listening on several ports in parallel and return me the incomming messages. Are there examples in the net that describe this problem?

class Receiver(asyncore.dispatcher, threading.Thread):
    '''
    This is the command receiver entity.
    '''

    def __init__(self, api, localIp, localPort):

        asyncore.dispatcher.__init__(self)
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        self.create_socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
        self.bind((localIp, localPort))
        self.cv = threading.Condition()
        self.data = []
        self.sorbasApi = api

    def handle_connect(self):
        return

    def writable(self):
        return False

    def handle_error(self):
        self.logger.error('error')
        return asyncore.dispatcher.handle_error(self)

    def handle_read(self):
        s = self.recv(4096)
        self.cv.acquire()
        self.data.append(s)
        self.cv.notifyAll()
        self.cv.release()

    def handle_close(self):
        self.close()

    def run(self):
        asyncore.loop()

    def flush(self):
        self.data = []

    def readNextMsg(self, paramSet, timeout=1):
        if len(self.data) == 0:
            self.cv.acquire()
            self.cv.wait(timeout)
            self.cv.release()
        if len(self.data) > 0:
            buffer = array('B', self.data.pop(0)).tolist()
            m = ReceiveMessage(self.sorbasApi, paramSet)
            m.decode(buffer)
            return m
        else:
            return None

    def __del__(self):
        self.close()

Thanks a lot in advance
Thomas
