Clarification of UDP Support

[Simon James]

Hi

I’m looking for guidance on the level of support for datagram sockets in
Netty.

I need to be able to:
1) bind a handler to a datagram socket on a known port, 
2) use the same channel returned by the bind to send packets to different
remote addresses

The first part works OK but, if I use write(Object message, SocketAddress
remoteAddress), I get a NotYetConnectedException.

I am using NIO with v3.1.3.

When I started to investigate this issue, I cam across  Trustin Lee’s
comment (gleamynode article 1502)

“UDP is not ready in Netty yet, but I believe it will be fully implemented
in 3.2”

Although, v3.1.3 includes support for NioDatagramChannelFactory, I note that
the QOTM example still uses OIO.

So, it’s not clear to me whether I can achieve what I need to with Netty
and, if it is, what version and package I should be using.

I will be grateful for any guidance.

Regards

Simon
