The RUDPClient component is a Reliable UDP client based on an asynchronous, event-driven architecture.

Syntax

nsoftware.IPWorksRTC.Rudpclient

Remarks

The RUDPClient component implements a Reliable UDP client based on RFC 908. Use of RUDPClient guarantees that data is delivered to the remote host using UDP as a transport mechanism.

Our main goal in designing RUDPClient was ease of use. The component has a minimum of properties and events.

The connection is attempted by calling the Connect method or setting the Connected property to True, and then waiting for the Connected event. The destination is defined by setting RemoteHost and RemotePort. Data is sent by calling the Send method with Text as a parameter, or by assigning the data string to the DataToSend property.

To disconnect, call the Disconnect method or set the Connected property to False. The Linger property controls how the connection is terminated.

The operation of the component is can be synchronous or asynchronous depending on the value of Timeout.

Rudpserver server = new Rudpserver();
server.OnDataIn += (s,e) => {
  //The DataIn event fires when data is received.
  Console.WriteLine("Server Received: " + e.Text);
  //Echo text back
  server.Connections[e.ConnectionId].DataToSend = e.Text;
};

server.LocalPort = 4444;
server.Listening = true;

Rudpclient client = new Rudpclient();
client.OnDataIn += (s, e) => {
  //The DataIn event fires when data is received.
  Console.WriteLine("Client Received: " + e.Text);
};

client.Connect("localhost", 4444);

//Send data to the server
client.DataToSend = "Hello World!";
