Can use Udp Multicast Receiver in child-window?

[mp33919]

Does any one know how to get data from Udp Multicast Receiver in the Mdi child window?

I am using the Qt5.2.1 in Centos6.5 machine. Currently, if I place the QUdpSocket in the main window, the slot "processPendingDatagram" could be triggered when the readReady signal is emitted. But, if I put the QUdpSocket in the child-window and tried to program a MDI applications, the QUdpSocket can not trigger the child-window.

My child-window is a QWidget window.
The codes are in child-window's default constructor:
QUdpSocket *udpSocket = new QUdpSocket;
udpSocket->bind(...);
udpSocket-> jointMulticastGroup(...);
connect(udpSocket, SIGNAL((readyRead()), this, SLOT(processPendingDatagrams()));

When I open the child-window, I could see the UpdSocket opend correctly. I knew the data is there, but never got into "processPendingDatagram".

I would like to know how I could fix this problem?

Thanks in advanced!

The socket doesn't care where you put it, it knows nothing of any widgets. If your code doesn't work then the problem is elsewhere.

Can anyone tell me how to solve my new problem using QUdpSocket:
Here are the code:

QUdpSocket *udpSocket = new QUdpSocket;
QHostAddress groupAddress = QHostAddress("225.0.0.1");
udpSocket->bind(QHostAddress::AnyIPv4, 45454, QUdpHost::ShareAddress);
udpSocket-> jointMulticastGroup(groupAddress);

connect(udpSocket, SIGNAL(readReady()), this, SLOT(processPendingDatagrams());

...

in processPendingDatagram()
{
QByteArray ba;
ba.resize(udpSocket->pendDatagramSize());
QHostAddress sender;
quint16 sendPort;
udpSocket->readDatagram(ba.data, ba.size(), &sender, &senderPort);

...

I found that I am not only get data from 225.0.0.1, but also get data from 225.0.0.2. Can anyone tell me why and how to eliminate the other IPs?

Thansk

Since UDP is connectionless, I think anyone can send you datagrams. You have to filter out the ones you don't want on your own.
