    Description

      The broadcast receiver example is not able to bind the socket.

      This is the original code:
      udpSocket = new QUdpSocket(this);
      udpSocket->bind(45454, QUdpSocket::ShareAddress);

      To show the problem, I changed the source like this:
      udpSocket = new QUdpSocket(this);
      if(!udpSocket->bind(45454, QUdpSocket::ShareAddress))
      qDebug() << "cannot bind !!!";

      This variant is working:
      udpSocket = new QUdpSocket(this);
      if(!udpSocket->bind(QHostAddress::AnyIPv4, 45454, QUdpSocket::ShareAddress))
      qDebug() << "cannot bind !!!";

      It seems that the problem is related to the changed behavior of the QHostAddress::Any enum.
