== NAME
message_aggregator - Reference example UDP server
== SYNOPSIS
*message_aggregator*
== DESCRIPTION
*message_aggregator* does not serve any useful purpose other than to
demonstrate the UDP message features of *WSJT-X*. It is a small GUI
application that interacts with any running *WSJT-X* instances.
Developers writing add on applications may find the source code of
message_aggregator contained in the *WSJT-X* code repository
useful. The files NetworkMessage.hpp, MessageServer.hpp,
MessageClient.hpp and their associated implementations along with the
application source MessageAggregator.cpp should cover all the required
areas. All these files can be found at:
https://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/HEAD/tree/branches/wsjtx/
*message_aggregator* may also be used as a multi-cast UDP server which
allows multiple instances of *message_aggregator* to be run
concurrently, to do this simply use a suitable multi-cast group
address in *message_aggregator* and in *WSJT-X* in the
"*Settings->Reporting->UDP Server*" pane e.g. 239.255.0.1 or ff03::1
for a local scope group.
Note that on some systems it may be necessary to add a static
multi-cast route to the routing table before multi-cast traffic can be
routed to sockets on the same host as the sender.
