UDPSClient::ConnectMulticast was calling the single-arg BasicUDPSocket::Join,
which forwards NULL as the local interface and lets the kernel bind to
INADDR_ANY. On a multi-homed host (or when the server sends on loopback via
Interface = "127.0.0.1") the client joins the wrong interface and silently
receives nothing.
Fix: read the optional Interface key inside the useMulticast block in
UDPSClient::Initialise; in ConnectMulticast call the two-arg
Join(group, interface) when Interface is set, and fall back to the one-arg
call otherwise to preserve the existing INADDR_ANY behaviour for configs that
omit it.
Forward the new optional Interface key through UDPStreamerClient (read from
DataSource config, written into the UDPSClient ConfigurationDatabase only
when non-empty). Extend the "Joined multicast group" log to report the
interface name or "default".
Regression test TestExecute_MulticastReceivesDataOnInterface: mock TCP
control listener + multicast UDP DATA socket with IP_MULTICAST_IF set to
127.0.0.1, verifying a uint32 value of 424242 reaches DataSource signal
memory. Confirmed FAILED without the Join fix and PASSED with it.
