Can I get the peer's UDP encapsulation port?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

All of the examples set up a remote encapsulation port before transmission. But 
can I get the peer's UDP port number from a message? It's necessary for 
Peer-to-Peer networking.

I'm not sure why you think that is needed. Please note that the remote UDP 
encapsulation port is not related to messages, but to a remote peer address. 
Please see
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6951#section-6.1
for a way query it.

Best regards

Thank you for your answer! I tried *struct sctp_udpencaps* in a wrong way last 
time so I failed to get the port number, but now I can get it correctly.
Yes, you're right, as many messages can come from one remote address with one 
encapsulation port. 
In fact, I was making something that needs a udp-like protocol, or is like http 
(without keepalive) which finishes one request in one connection. So I send one 
message per association for just now. (maybe I'll change that in the future)
However, I can get the remote address when recving a message, and then I can 
get the encapsulation port from the address. That's good enough.
