Wish MulticastSocket

[aaronk]

Would be good to see the jNetwork library updated to support MulticastSocket so it can support the Amazon Echo.

Found this if it's any help - https://github.com/armzilla/amazon-...n/java/com/armzilla/ha/upnp/UpnpListener.java

Please test this code (you need to add the PacketArrived event):

Sub Process_Globals
   Private udp As UDPSocket
End Sub

Sub AppStart (Args() As String)
   CreateMulticastSocket("udp", 1900, "239.255.255.250")
   StartMessageLoop
End Sub

Sub CreateMulticastSocket (EventName As String, Port As Int, Group As String)
   Dim multi As JavaObject
   multi.InitializeNewInstance("java.net.MulticastSocket", Array(Port))
   Dim inet As JavaObject
   multi.RunMethod("joinGroup", Array(inet.InitializeStatic("java.net.InetAddress").RunMethod("getByName", Array(Group))))
   Dim jo As JavaObject = Me
   jo.RunMethod("SetMulticastSocket", Array(EventName, multi, udp))
End Sub

#if java
import java.net.*;
public static void SetMulticastSocket (String EventName, MulticastSocket socket, anywheresoftware.b4a.objects.SocketWrapper.UDPSocket udp) {
   udp.init(ba, EventName, 8192, socket);
}
#end if

This worked. I see a lot of data being sent in the Log when I discover for devices.

Thanks heaps for your help on this.
