I just checked in a refactored UDP API into CVS. Please take a look and comment.

And I guess some explanations are in order. I disabled twisted.names test for the checkin, as it tests were failing. Commenting out tests cause they break is a bad thing - DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME CHILDREN. I only did it because names was inherently broken, as conformed by the maintainer. And looks like I volunteered to do some fixing :/ Anyway, the new API: Unconnected UDP ports ===================== port = reactor.listenUDP(port, protocol) protocol is instance of DatagramProtocol, which unlike TCP protocols is expected to be persistent. It will get start/stopProtocol called at the appropriate time. protocols' datagramReceived(data, (host, port)) method will be called when they receive datagram, and the can self.transport.write(data, (host, port)). Connected UDP ports =================== port = reactor.connectUDP(remotehost, remoteport, protocol) protocol is instance of ConnectedDatagramProtocol, which unlike TCP protocols is expected to be persistent. It will get start/stopProtocol called at the appropriate time. protocols' datagramReceived(data) method will be called when they receive datagram, and the can self.transport.write(data). -- Itamar Shtull-Trauring http://itamarst.org/ Available for Python, Twisted, Zope and Java consulting ***> http://VoteNoWar.org -- vote/donate/volunteer <***
