MCast Control

Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors

The MCast control is used to multicast User Datagram Protocol (UDP) datagrams to multicast-capable hosts in multicast-capable subnets. It can act both as a client and a server and can communicate with any number of hosts simultaneously, as well as generate and receive broadcast packets.

Syntax

MCast

Remarks

The MCast control is very similar to UDP, except for some additional properties that provide support for multicast datagrams. To send datagrams to a multicast group, simply assign the address of the group to RemoteHost. To receive datagrams from one or more groups, assign the group addresses to MulticastGroup one by one (after the control is activated). TimeToLive allows you to specify how many subnets a packet should be allowed to receive. ReceiveInterface and SendInterface allow you to select the network interface for multicast operations.

The control is activated/deactivated through the Active property. This property enables or disables sends or receives. The data can be sent in the same way as UDP, by calling the Send method with a Text parameter or with the DataToSend property. The destination is specified using the RemoteHost and RemotePort properties. Inbound data are received through the DataIn event.

AcceptData Property (MCast Control)

This property enables or disables data reception (the DataIn event).

Syntax

mcastcontrol.AcceptData[=boolean]

Default Value

True

Remarks

This property enables or disables data reception (the DataIn event). Setting this property to False, temporarily disables data reception (and the DataIn event). Setting this property to True, reenables data reception.

Note: It is recommended to use the PauseData or ProcessData method instead of setting this property.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

Active Property (MCast Control)

This property indicates whether the control is active.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Active[=boolean]

Default Value

False

Remarks

This property indicates whether the control is currently active and can send or receive data.

When the control can be used for sending and receiving User Datagram Protocol (UDP) datagrams.

Note: Use the Activate or Deactivate method to control whether the control is active.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

DataToSend Property (MCast Control)

This property is deprecated. Please use the SendBytes method or the SendText method instead.

This write-only property includes a string of data to be sent to the remote host.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.DataToSend[=string]

Default Value

Remarks

This write-only property contains a string of data to be sent to the remote host. Assigning a string to this property makes the control send the string to the remote host. The Send method provides similar functionality.

The Transmission Control Protocol(TCP)/IP subsystem attempts to send the string assigned to this property as a complete message. If socket buffers are full, or the message cannot be delivered for any reason, an error is fired, and no portion of the message is sent. This is different from TCP in which portions of the messages can be sent. The control sends either a complete message or nothing at all.

If you are sending data to the remote host faster than it can process it, or faster than the network's bandwidth allows, the outgoing queue might fill up. When this happens, this property fails with error 25036: "[10035] Operation would block" (WSAEWOULDBLOCK). You can trap this error, and then try to send the data again. .

To read or write binary data to the property, a Variant (Byte Array) version is provided in .DataToSendB.

This property is write-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Binary String

LocalHost Property (MCast Control)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.LocalHost[=string]

Default Value

Remarks

The LocalHost property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the control initiate connections (or accept in the case of server controls) only through that interface.

If the control is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

NOTE: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

Data Type

String

LocalPort Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port in the local host where MCast binds.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.LocalPort[=integer]

Default Value

Remarks

This property must be set before MCast is activated (Active is set to True). It instructs the control to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) on the local machine.

Setting it to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by this property after the connection is established.

This property cannot be changed once the control is Active. Any attempt to set this property when the control is Active will generate an error.

This property is useful when trying to send data to services that require a trusted port on the client side.

Data Type

Integer

Loopback Property (MCast Control)

This property enables or disables loopback of data sent to the multicast group.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Loopback[=boolean]

Default Value

True

Remarks

This property enables or disables loopback of data sent to the multicast group. Setting this property to False disables loopback of data sent through the control (normally loopback is enabled). This property is directly related to the IP_MULTICAST_LOOP socket option.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

MulticastGroup Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the multicast group to join or leave.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.MulticastGroup[=string]

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the multicast group to join or leave. Multicast groups are joined by assigning values to this property after the control is activated. More than one group may be joined at the same time. To define which interface to use, the ReceiveInterface property is used.

Determining whether a group is left or joined is done by setting the first letter of MulticastGroup to "-" or "+". The default operation is join.

To remove the control from a multicast group once it is joined, simply assign this groupname (address) to MulticastGroup prefixed by a minus sign "-".

Example. Joining/Leaving Groups:

MCastControl.Active = true MCastControl.MulticastGroup = "+231.31.31.31" MCastControl.MulticastGroup = "+232.32.32.32" MCastControl.MulticastGroup = "-232.32.32.32" MCastControl.MulticastGroup = "-231.31.31.31"

Data Type

String

ReceiveInterface Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the interface with which to receive multicast packets. If empty, the default is used.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.ReceiveInterface[=string]

Default Value

Remarks

This property is useful when there is more than one network interface, and the one used for receiving multicast datagrams is not the default. If you wish to set an interface other than the system default, provide the IP address of the interface to be set.

This property is used along with the MulticastGroup property to join one or more multicast groups. The joining is done after the control is activated by assigning proper values to MulticastGroup.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

RemoteHost Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the address of the remote host (multicast group).

Syntax

mcastcontrol.RemoteHost[=string]

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the address of the remote host (multicast group). To send a multicast datagram, specify a RemoteHost value in the range of 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. These addresses are reserved as multicast addresses by IP.

Data Type

String

RemotePort Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port on the remote host.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.RemotePort[=integer]

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the UDP port on the RemoteHost to send UDP datagrams to.

A valid port number (i.e., a value between 1 and 65535) is required.

Data Type

Integer

SendInterface Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the interface from which multicast packets are sent. If empty, the default is used.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.SendInterface[=string]

Default Value

Remarks

This property is useful when there is more than one network interface, and the one used for sending multicast datagrams is not the default. If you wish to set an interface other than the system default, provide the IP address of the interface to be set.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

TimeToLive Property (MCast Control)

This property includes the maximum number of subnets that a multicast datagram can traverse.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.TimeToLive[=integer]

Default Value

Remarks

This property contains the maximum number of subnets that a multicast datagram can traverse. The default value for this property is 7. This is an arbitrary value. You need to specify a value suitable for your application.

Multicast datagrams with this property set to 0 are not transmitted on any subnetwork. Multicast datagrams with this property set to 1 are delivered only on the local network. Multicast datagrams with this property set to greater than 1 may be delivered to more than one subnetwork if one or more multicast routers are attached to the first-hop subnetwork.

A multicast router does not forward multicast datagrams with destination addresses between 224.0.0.0 and 224.0.0.255, inclusive, regardless of their TimeToLive. This particular range of addresses is reserved for the use of routing protocols and other low-level topology discovery or maintenance protocols, such as gateway discovery and group membership reporting.

Data Type

Integer

Activate Method (MCast Control)

This method enables sending and receiving of data.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Activate

Remarks

This method enables sending and receiving of data. When called, the component will create a communication endpoint (socket) that can be used for sending and receiving User Datagram Protocol (UDP) datagrams.

Config Method (MCast Control)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Config ConfigurationString

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every control. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the control.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the control, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Deactivate Method (MCast Control)

This method disables sending and receiving of data.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Deactivate

Remarks

This method disables sending and receiving of data. When called, the component will destroy the existing socket and disable data communications.

DoEvents Method (MCast Control)

Processes events from the internal message queue.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.DoEvents

Remarks

When DoEvents is called, the control processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

PauseData Method (MCast Control)

This method pauses data reception.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.PauseData

Remarks

This method pauses data reception when called. While data reception is paused, the DataIn event will not fire. Call ProcessData to reenable data reception.

ProcessData Method (MCast Control)

This method reenables data reception after a call to PauseData .

Syntax

mcastcontrol.ProcessData

Remarks

This method reenables data reception after a previous call to PauseData. When PauseData is called, the DataIn event will not fire. To reenable data reception and allow DataIn to fire, call this method.

Note: This method is used only after previously calling PauseData. It does not need to be called to process incoming data by default.

Reset Method (MCast Control)

This method resets the control.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Reset

Remarks

This method will reset the control's properties to their default values.

ResolveRemoteHost Method (MCast Control)

Resolves the hostname in RemoteHost to an IP address.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.ResolveRemoteHost

Remarks

This method resolves the hostname specified by RemoteHost to an IP address. The resolved value is available in the RemoteHost property after this method returns.

In most cases calling this method is not necessary, the control will resolve the hostname automatically when necessary. If DelayHostResolution is this method may be called to manually resolve RemoteHost if desired.

Send Method (MCast Control)

This method sends data to the remote host.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.Send Text

Remarks

This method sends data to the remote host. Calling this method is equivalent to setting the DataToSend property to Text.

SendBytes Method (MCast Control)

This method sends data to the remote host.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.SendBytes Data

Remarks

This method sends data to the remote host. Calling this method is equivalent to calling the SendBytes/SendText method.

SendText Method (MCast Control)

This method sends data to the remote host.

Syntax

mcastcontrol.SendText Text

Remarks

This method sends data to the remote host. Calling this method is equivalent to calling the SendBytes/SendText method.

DataIn Event (MCast Control)

Fired when data is received.

Syntax

Sub mcastcontrol_DataIn(Datagram As String, SourceAddress As String, SourcePort As Integer)

Remarks

The DataIn event is fired every time a new datagram is received.

Datagram contains the packet as sent by the remote host.

SourceAddress contains the IP number (Internet address) of the remote host, and SourcePort contains the port from which the packet originated.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.

Error Event (MCast Control)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

Sub mcastcontrol_Error(ErrorCode As Integer, Description As String)

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the control fails with an error.

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

ReadyToSend Event (MCast Control)

Fired when the control is ready to send data.

Syntax

Sub mcastcontrol_ReadyToSend()

Remarks

The ReadyToSend event indicates that the underlying TCP/IP subsystem is ready to accept data after a failed DataToSend.

Config Settings (MCast Control)

The control accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the control, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

UDP Config Settings

CaptureIPPacketInfo: Used to capture the packet information.

If this is set to true, the component will capture the IP packet information.

The default value for this setting is False.

Note: This setting is only available in Windows.

DelayHostResolution: Whether the hostname is resolved when RemoteHost is set.

This setting specifies whether a hostname is resolved immediately when RemoteHost is set. If the control will resolve the hostname and the IP address will be present in the RemoteHost property. If , the hostname is not resolved until needed by the component when a method to connect or send data is called. If desired, ResolveRemoteHost may called to manually resolve the value in RemoteHost at any time.

The default value is .

DestinationAddress: Used to get the destination address from the packet information.

If CaptureIPPacketInfo is set to true, then this will be populated with the packet's destination address when a packet is received. This information will be accessible in the DataIn event.

Note: This setting is only available in Windows.

DontFragment: Used to set the Don't Fragment flag of outgoing packets.

When set to True, packets sent by the control will have the Don't Fragment flag set. The default value is False.

LocalHost: The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The LocalHost setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

If the control is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

LocalPort: The port in the local host where the control binds.

This must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the control to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.

LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

MaxPacketSize: The maximum length of the packets that can be received.

This setting specifies the maximum size of the datagrams that the control will accept without truncation.

QOSDSCPValue: Used to specify an arbitrary QOS/DSCP setting (optional).

UseConnection must be True to use this setting. This option allows you to specify an arbitrary DSCP value between 0 and 63. The default is 0. When set to the default value the component will not set a DSCP value.

Note: This setting uses the qWAVE API is only available on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, and later.

QOSTrafficType: Used to specify QOS/DSCP settings (optional).

UseConnection must be True to use this setting. You may specify either the text or integer values: BestEffort (0), Background (1), ExcellentEffort (2), AudioVideo (3), Voice (4), and Control (5).

Note: This setting uses the qWAVE API which is only available on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or above.

Note: QOSTrafficType must be set before setting Active to true.

ShareLocalPort: If set to True, allows more than one instance of the control to be active on the same local port.

This option must be set before the control is activated through the Active property or it will have no effect.

The default value for this setting is False.

UseConnection: Determines whether to use a connected socket.

UseConnection specifies whether the control should use a connected socket or not. The connection is defined as an association in between the local address/port and the remote address/port. As such, this is not a connection in the traditional TCP sense. What it means is only that the control will send and receive data only to and from the specified destination.

The default value for this setting is False.

UseIPv6: Whether or not to use IPv6.

By default, the component expects an IPv4 address for local and remote host properties, and will create an IPv4 socket. To use IPv6 instead, set this to True.

Socket Config Settings

AbsoluteTimeout: Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method which does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

Note: This option is not valid for UDP ports.

FirewallData: Used to send extra data to the firewall.

When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g. headers for custom authentication schemes).

InBufferSize: The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. Increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the control is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize: The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. Increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the control is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.
