DTLSSocket

DTLSSocket class hierarchy

DTLSSocket and DTLSSocketWrapper implement DTLS stream over the existing Socket transport. You can find design and implementation details in the Secure Socket page.

To use secure DTLS connections, application use the DTLSSocketWrapper through the Socket API, so existing applications and libraries are compatible.

DTLSSocketWrapper inherits TLSSocketWrapper and uses the same API. The only difference is that it uses timers to keep track of DTLS timeouts. Please see TLSSocket for an example.
