UDP receive and send with julia

using Sockets
function recdata()
    @async begin
        sock=UDPSocket()
        bind(sock,ip"x.x.x.x",port)
        while true
            mydata=reinterpret(Int8,recv(sock))    # ??
            func1(mydata)
        end  ## this loop will never terminate
        close(sock)
    end
end

function func1(data)
####some operation that take maximum 1 second
    senddata(output);
end
function senddata(output)
     data=reinterpret(Int8,output)   ## ???
     soc=UDPSocket()
     send(soc, ip"y.y.y.y",port2,data)
     sleep(0.2)
end

I reformatted your code using triple backticks (see Please read: make it easier to help you).

Normally you will use some serialization (serialize and deserialize) to transmit data via an UDP socket (See also GitHub - JuliaIO/JSON.jl: JSON parsing and printing). Can reinterpret work in your case? Transmission over UDP is done in UINT8.
