Dear all,
I want to design a one-to-more communication at same time.
considering the loose-coupled, the pub/sub mode is suitable，（socket is close-coupled）. So I try to test whether it is possible that more than one publishers use the same ID?
When these publisher work at same time ,the subscriber only receive the last message as follows Fig shown.
1、is there any other solutions？
2、the different between FB "PUBLxxx" and"PUBILISHxxx"?
3、the"PUBLxxx"can not work well.

I would have expected that all messages would be sent. However we have some issues if several messages are received at the same time. Can you check with wireshark how many messages are sent?

The PUBL blocks are an implementation of the local multicast design pattern [1]. They can only be used to communicate within the same device.

Dear Prof. Alois Zoitle
thank you for your reply.
Four messages are sent, however only one message received.

Thanks for finding this out. Then I assume that the operating system is combining all four messages into one notification to forte. Currently we do not handle this very well. It is also not very easy to debug.

Just out of curiosity if you add an E_DELAY between sending of your four messages (maybe 100 to 200 ms) does this change anything?

Ok that helps to track down the issue. We anyhow have planed for the near future to rework the network infrastructure to better handle message bursts. This is one test case we should then consider.
