[socat] error generated when attempting to listen on a UDP socket

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Description / Steps to reproduce the issue

socat -u UDP-L:37771,reuseaddr STDOUT > outfile &

Expected behavior

No error messages

Actual behavior

E xioopen_ipdgram_listen(): unknown address family 0

This appears to be specific to version 1.8.0.0. See this link for additional info: http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/
I have an older MSYS sytem with socat version 1.7.4.4 and it does not exhibit this behavior.

Verification

Windows Version

MINGW64_NT-10.0-22631

Are you willing to submit a PR?

no, but it looks like it will be eventually fixed upstream

1.8.0.1 is available now and the error does not show up. Is your case now fully working after update?
