Hello!
I would like to know if WMB can handle the UDP protocol. TCP can be used, of course. But what about UDP? I have to implement a solution where the other side only can send datagrams. The solution needs to interchange message with a protocol which based on UDP.
Does anybody knows something about this topic?
Kind regards! |

You can either use Java Compute Node or a stand alone Java application (Wrapper class to connect to a server via UDP) and invoke from ESQL. |

Just to clearify.
IBM WMB has to receive messages from a UDP client. Therefore the client will start with the communication and send messages and WMB has to act as a UDP server and sends back information to that client.
Is this possible? I have to use a kind of start node for this. Maybe the TCPIP node will fit?
Does anybody know? |

The WMB can handle the UDP protocol with user-defined input/output nodes. The built-in TCPIP input/output nodes do not support UDP. |

There is a very old v5 redbook that contains code for sample UDP nodes.
Note that these should be considered *samples*, and treated accordingly. |
