Broadcasts On OS X - Oops!

[Pierre Sahores]

Hi,

As a workaround witch works for me with any Rev issues i still use  
(2.51 to 2.74) under the Windows, Mac OS X, Ubuntu or Solaris  
platforms :

Build your stack under the Metacard (2.32 to 2.5 issues tested OK)  
first. Reopen and save this stack  as "stack.rev" under the Rev  
environment and it will still run OK your TCP/IP sockets tasks, even  
if you are going head in continue to develop this stack under the Rev  
platform.

Best Regards,
