[Q] how to setup specific ip address for wxIPV4address object.

[Hugo Jackson]

hi...

my experience is that you can bind to a specific address in wxGTK and  
wxMSW but you can't bind to a specific address in wxMAC.

For those machines that seem to allow binding to a specific port you  
would write something like:

wxIPV4address boundAddress;
boundAddress.Hostname( _T( "234.124.2.23" ) ); // or whatever address  
you want
boundAddress.Service( 128 ); // or whatever port you want

wxSocketClient* socketClient = new wxSocketClient();
socketClient->Connect( boundAddress ); // etc.
