- ## Method Details

  - ### join

    public static int join(long sock, long join, long iface, long source)
    Deprecated.
    Join a Multicast Group
    Parameters:
      `sock` - The socket to join a multicast group
      `join` - The address of the multicast group to join
      `iface` - Address of the interface to use. If NULL is passed, the default multicast interface will be used. (OS Dependent)
      `source` - Source Address to accept transmissions from (non-NULL implies Source-Specific Multicast)
    Returns:
      the operation status

  - ### leave

    public static int leave(long sock, long addr, long iface, long source)
    Deprecated.
    Leave a Multicast Group. All arguments must be the same as apr_mcast_join.
    Parameters:
      `sock` - The socket to leave a multicast group
      `addr` - The address of the multicast group to leave
      `iface` - Address of the interface to use. If NULL is passed, the default multicast interface will be used. (OS Dependent)
      `source` - Source Address to accept transmissions from (non-NULL implies Source-Specific Multicast)
    Returns:
      the operation status

  - ### hops

    public static int hops(long sock, int ttl)
    Deprecated.
    Set the Multicast Time to Live (ttl) for a multicast transmission.
    Parameters:
      `sock` - The socket to set the multicast ttl
      `ttl` - Time to live to Assign. 0-255, default=1
      Remark : If the TTL is 0, packets will only be seen by sockets on the local machine, and only when multicast loopback is enabled.
    Returns:
      the operation status

  - ### loopback

    public static int loopback(long sock, boolean opt)
    Deprecated.
    Toggle IP Multicast Loopback
    Parameters:
      `sock` - The socket to set multicast loopback
      `opt` - false=disable, true=enable
    Returns:
      the operation status

  - ### ointerface

    public static int ointerface(long sock, long iface)
    Deprecated.
    Set the Interface to be used for outgoing Multicast Transmissions.
    Parameters:
      `sock` - The socket to set the multicast interface on
      `iface` - Address of the interface to use for Multicast
    Returns:
      the operation status
