IPEndPoint Question

[Rainer Queck]

Hi NG,

what is wrong with the following code?
Sender and Revceiver are of the Type IPEndPoint.

//=================
bool IsEqual = tlg.Receiver.Equals(aTlg.Sender);
if(tlg.Receiver.Address == aTlg.Sender.Address)
{
if(tlg.Receiver.Port == aTlg.Sender.Port)
{
}
}
//=================
I have the situation, where IsEqual is true, but the first if - block is
never entered. Why ist that?
If I look at tlg.Reciever.Address, the debugger shows me the same value as
with aTlg.Sender.Address!

What is it that I miss here?

Thanks for hep and hints.

Performs the checks of the address and port, why do you do it additionaly?

Also IPAddress contains not only address, but also address family.

Try to call
if ( tlg.Receiver.Address.Equals(aTlg.Sender.Address) )
{
...
}

Hi Vadym,

bool IsEqual = tlg.Receiver.Equals(aTlg.Sender); Performs the checks of the address and port, why do you do it additionaly?

This line was not there from the beginning. I added just for debugging.
The problem is, that the if-block was never entered.
Also IPAddress contains not only address, but also address family. In my case the address family should be identical, since I am using two
instances of the same class, to send UDP telegrams to each other, or not?
Try to call
if ( tlg.Receiver.Address.Equals(aTlg.Sender.Address) )

Actually I am now using :
bool IsEqual = tlg.Receiver.Equals(aTlg.Sender);
if (IsEqual)....
to veryfy whether the the telgram received is a answer to the one sent
befor...

I am still confused, why my if (..) did not work.

IPEndPoint doesn't have "==" operator overriden.
If it is not overriden object references are compared, since you're
comparing 2 different objects their references are also different.

That is for IpEndPoint and IPAddress we need to use Equals method to check
their equality

IPEndPoint ipEndP1 = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse("192.168.10.73"), 10);
IPEndPoint ipEndP2 = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse("192.168.10.73"), 10);

if (ipEndP1 == ipEndP2)
Console.WriteLine("Equal with ==");
else if ( ipEndP1.Equals(ipEndP2) )
Console.WriteLine("Equal with Equals method");
else
Console.WriteLine("not equal");

if ( ipEndP1.Address == ipEndP2.Address)
Console.WriteLine("Equal with ==");
else if ( ipEndP1.Address.Equals(ipEndP2.Address) )
Console.WriteLine("Equal with Equals method");
else
Console.WriteLine("not equal");

Now I see. Thank you for your help!
