Send XML message over UDP?

**udpkillsme** · 06-22-2011, 04:45 PM

Hi, here is my question:
How can I send an XML message(just any simple XML file) to a server or any ip using UDP packets?

I've searched and searched and am unable to find any good information.
Thanks for any help.

Is there anything special about the data that you want to send to a server?
What do you expect the server to do with the data it receives?
Do you know how to use Datagrams to send data to a server? Have you tried that?
Perhaps something like this could be used:

Java Code:

        InetAddress localhost = InetAddress.getByName("11.222.33.44");
        DatagramSocket socket = new DatagramSocket(3243, localhost);  
        socket.send(new DatagramPacket(notifyRequestBytes,notifyRequestBytes.length,localhost, 1234));
