Description Nicola Baldo 2011-10-19 12:35:14 UTC

Created attachment 1259 [details]
proposed fix

according to the doxygen documentation of Socket::SendTo

http://www.nsnam.org/docs/release/3.12/doxygen/classns3_1_1_socket.html#af898fce6a58e0dbba23c1c6de1d4220e

if successful, should return "the number of bytes copied in the internal buffer and accepted for transmission" 

however PacketSocket::SendTo does not comply with this.

I am attaching a patch that fixes this issue.
