Multicast file trasnfer

What is the best way to do a multicast file transfer in ICE? Is there direct support for it?

Thanks,
Samarth

    Hi,

    The Ice UDP transport supports multicast. However, we don't provide any Slice interfaces and implementation to do file transfer over udp/multicast. This is something you need to implement. A good start to implement this is to checkout the Ice/multicast demo from your Ice distribution.

    Cheers,
    Benoit.

    I am working on a similar project and would like to know how you got on. What was your solution and how did you go about it? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as I am new to Ice.

    Thanks in advance,
