process UDP pakets with perl

[hudo]

Hello, I'd like to process UDP pakets with perl on a windows xp platform. I used to use activestate perl on the windows platform.

Can anybody tell me the necessary modules (from activestate) or even some examples to send, receive and evaluate UDP pakets.


Many thanks in advance

Here are a few packages that you could look into:

The Net::UDP module provides services for UDP communications over sockets.
NetPacket::UDP provides a set of routines for assembling and disassembling packets using UDP (User Datagram Protocol).

You can find them all on cpan.perl.org. There are actually a lot of entries on CPAN for UDP. You should look through them to find the one that fits your needs the best.
