UdpClient Constructor (String, Int32) (System.Net.Sockets)

This constructor initializes a new UdpClient and establishes a remote host using the hostname and port parameters. Establishing a default remote host is optional. If you use this constructor, you do not have to specify a remote host in each call to the Send method. Specifying a default remote host limits you to that host only. You can change the default remote host at any time by calling the Connect method. If you want to specify a remote host in your call to the Send method, do not use this constructor.

Note
If you receive a SocketException, use SocketException.ErrorCode to obtain the specific error code. Once you have obtained this code, you can refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation in MSDN for a detailed description of the error.

The following example demonstrates how to create an instance of the UdpClient class using a host name and port number.

'Creates an instance of the UdpClient class with a remote host name and a port number.
Try
   Dim udpClient As New UdpClient("www.contoso.com", 11000)
Catch e As Exception
   Console.WriteLine(e.ToString())
End Try

//Creates an instance of the UdpClient class with a remote host name and a port number.
try{
     UdpClient udpClient = new UdpClient("www.contoso.com",11000);
}
catch (Exception e ) {
           Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
}

//Creates an instance of the UdpClient class with a remote host name and a port number.
try
{
   UdpClient^ udpClient = gcnew UdpClient( "www.contoso.com",11000 );
}
catch ( Exception^ e ) 
{
   Console::WriteLine( e->ToString() );
}
