Android multicast issue (due to message-io?)

[lemunozm]

Hi @sigmaSd,

the multicast issue could be related to lemunozm/message-io#70

I will notify you when I fix it :)

Hello @lemunozm,

Thanks for looking into this issue!

I already explored this and I remember that I could reproduce it on my phone with a basic java multicast example.

I concluded that multicast is not really well supported on android, also I have an old phone and that might have a big part in this.

Also I need to mention that I did not commit android folder, but for multicast to attempt to work you need to add this permission to the android manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE" />

I'll give a try anyway after you figure out the message-io issue.

Thanks!

Thanks for the point @sigmaSd,

I already upload the fix to message-io. Version 0.14.2 contains it. I hope it is related and solves the android problem.

Hello @lemunozm,

I updated to the latest message-io, unfortunately it doesn't fix the issue, like I said its very likely due to my old android phone, this is not something on message-io side.

Ok, thanks for testing it anyway :)
