BUG FIX: UDP Sockets cannot receive data [25865]

This article applies to:

E-Prime 3.0

Symptoms 

UDP Sockets cannot receive data.

Detail

UDP Sockets (SocketDevices with ConnectType = UDP) cannot receive data, although they can send data.  No error message or warning appears when the socket is checked for data, but no data is received by the socket device input queue; the SocketDevice.InputCount is always zero.

Solution

This bug has been fixed in E-Prime 3.0.3.60 (Update 1). Upgrade to E-Prime 3.0.3.60 or later. 

Additionally, the following Startup Info Parameters should be added to the experiment:

• Socket.UDPRecvServer (String data type, IP Address of the machine receiving the data)
• Socket.UDPRecvPort (Numeric data type, Port Number used)
