/**
 * @class ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast
 *
 * @brief Defines the ACE socket wrapper for UDP/IP multicast.
 *
 * Supports multiple simultaneous subscriptions, unsubscription from one or
 * all subscriptions, and independent send/recv address and interface
 * specifications.  Constructor arguments determine per-instance optional
 * functionality.
 *
 * Note that multicast semantics and implementation details are @i very
 * environment-specific; this class is just a wrapper around the underlying
 * implementation and does not try to normalize the concept of multicast
 * communications.
 *
 * Usage Notes:
 * - Send and receive addresses and network interfaces, but not port number,
 *   are independent. While this instance is open, one send interface (and a
 *   default send address) is in effect and 0, 1, or multiple receive
 *   addresses/interfaces are in effect.
 * - The first open()/subscribe() invocation defines the network interface
 *   and default address used for all sends by this instance, defines the
 *   port number and optionally the multicast address bound to the underlying
 *   socket, and defines the (one) port number that is used for all subscribes
 *   (subsequent subscribes must pass the same port number or 0).
 * - The default loopback state is not explicitly set; the environment will
 *   determine the default state.  Note that some environments (e.g. some
 *   Windows versions) do not allow the default to be changed, and that the
 *   semantics of loopback control are environment dependent (e.g. sender vs.
 *   receiver control).
 * - In general, due to multicast design and implementation quirks/bugs, it is
 *   difficult to tell which address a received message was sent to or which
 *   interface it was received on (even if only one subscription is active).
 *   However, there are filtering options that can be applied, to narrow it
 *   down considerably.
 *
 * Interface specification notes (for subscribe() and unsubscribe()):
 * - If @a net_if == 0, the @c OPT_NULLIFACE_ALL and @c OPT_NULLIFACE_ONE
 *   options determine whether only the system default interface
 *   (if @c OPT_NULLIFACE_ONE is set) or all interfaces (if
 *   @c OPT_NULLIFACE_ALL is set) is affected.  Specifying all interfaces
 *   functions correctly only on:
 *      + Windows
 *      + Platforms with the ACE_HAS_GETIFADDRS config setting (includes Linux)
 *      + Platforms which accept the IP address as an interface
 *        name/specification
 *      + Systems with only one non-loopback interface.
 *   Other platforms require additional supporting code.
 * - Multiple subscriptions for the same address but different interfaces is
 *   normally supported, but re-subscription to an address/interface that is
 *   already subscribed is normally not allowed.
 * - The @a net_if interface specification syntax is environment-specific.
 *   UNIX systems will normally use device specifications such as "le0" or
 *   "elxl1", while other systems will use the IP address of the interface.
 *   Some platforms, such as pSoS, support only cardinal numbers as network
 *   interface specifications; for these platforms, just give these numbers in
 *   string form and join() will convert them into numbers.

     *   support access to that information.
