//
// UDP protocol implementation, for IPv4 and IPv6.
//
// The UDP protocol header is represented by the class ~UDPPacket.
//
// <b>Communication with clients (applications)</b>
//
// The module can (should) be connected to several applications.
// For sending an UDP packet, the application should attach an ~UDPControlInfo
// object to the payload, and send it to ~UDP.
// ~UDP will also attach an ~UDPControlInfo object to any payload
// message in sends up to the application.
//
// For receiving UDP packets, the connected applications should first
// "bind" to the given UDP port. This can be done by sending an
// arbitrary message with message kind UDP_C_BIND and an ~UDPControlInfo
// attached with srcPort filled in.
//
// When UDP receives an ICMP error (~ICMPMessage or ~ICMPv6Message)
// that refers to an UDP socket, it reports the error to the corresponding
// application by sending a message with kind UDP_I_ERROR.
//
// <b>Communication with the IP (IPv4/IPv6) layer</b>
//
// The ~UDP model relies on sending and receiving ~IPv4ControlInfo/~IPv6ControlInfo
// objects attached to ~UDPPacket objects as control info.
//
// @see ~UDPPacket, ~UDPControlInfo, ~UDPCommandCode
//
