UdpClient Error : Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted

[zafersavas]

Hello everyone, I am having trouble with UdpClient class. Here is my code:

private UdpClient myClient;
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
myClient = new UdpClient(7777);
}

    private void button2\_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        myClient.Close();
    }

So when I press button1 to connect for the first time - Everything is OK when I press button2 to discconect - Everything is OK But when I try to connect for the second time by pressnig button1 I get the error : "Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted" How can I solve this problem? How can I bind my socket again? Any help will be appreciated. Regards

The error comes only if you press button1 2 times. If you press button1, button2, then button1 again, it's ok.

Why do you want to press button twice? When UdpClient's constructor is executed with a port number, it binds to the port number provided. You can't rebind to that port again. Once the binding is done, call Connect() method to connect the socket.
