This patch adds multicast support to the OSCx libs, it looks useful, but I don't really use OSC, so I couldn't say if its worth taking or not:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=1612910&group_id=55736&atid=478072
Shall we trying it in the nightly test builds? Anyone willing to vouch for this patch so that it can be included in the next release?

Hi,
I did this patch quickly because I needed it.
The changes are _very_ simple, so I have some confidence that it should work.
Some quick tests under Linux and OS X showed that it was working. I haven't tried the patch under Windows. (Never compiled Pd under Windows actually.)
Testing the TTL parameter is not so easy... you need to test several ranges of subnets. Setting it to 0 showed that a message could be sent to localhost but not to another computer on the subnet, so that at least supports the theory that it works. But I haven't tried it over the internet.
By the way, I made the changes based on this tutorial: http://ntrg.cs.tcd.ie/undergrad/4ba2/multicast/antony/index.html
Testing it with Max/MSP's "net.multi.send/receive" objects produced some garbage... I'm not sure what that was all about. But testing it with Max 4.6's udpsend/receive objects worked fine.
Another change I'd like to make is to have sendOSC support some arugments for port/host instead of having to send it the "connect" message, but I thought that kind of change would be out of this patch's scope.
Let me know if anyone has comments or criticisms, I'd be happy to make changes and re-submit the patch.

I committed it without the changes to configure.ac since those broke the Pd-extended build stuff. We'll see tomorrow whether it builds on Windows...

That's great!
About the configure.ac stuff, I probably shouldn't have included those changes in the submitted patch. However, as a separate issue, those changes were necessary for me get OSCx to compile against the Pd.app bundle. Any chance on making similar configure.ac changes that won't break Pd-extended?

I'm not going to do it, but feel free to do it yourself. Or you can use the Pd-extended build system, it works and is maintained on many platforms, including yours.
For this, you would: cd pure-data/externals make oscx

Hello,
You can find my patch for this on the patch tracker. I still don't know why the changes don't seem to work for sendOSC in Windows, but at least it compiles correctly now.
Ok, I checked it in. It still compiles on Mac OS X. We'll see tomorrow whether it built on MinGW.
Thanks,
