Method Details

datagramReceived(self, datagram, addr)

Called when a datagram is received.
Parameters:
datagram - the string received from the transport.
addr - tuple of source of datagram.

doStart(self)

Make sure startProtocol is called.

doStop(self)

Make sure stopProtocol is called.

makeConnection(self, transport)

Make a connection to a transport and a server.

This sets the 'transport' attribute of this DatagramProtocol, and calls the doStart() callback.

Called when a transport is connected to this protocol.

Will only be called once, even if multiple ports are connected.

stopProtocol(self)

Called when the transport is disconnected.

Will only be called once, after all ports are disconnected.
