Non-blocking DatagramSocket?

Question

I'm currently developing a client application for Android that is supposed to do non-blocking reception of packets through UDP. Is there any way to setup a DatagramSocket so that it is non-blocking on its receive()?

Basically what I'm asking is how to set the MSG_DONTWAIT flag for a DatagramSocket.

What you are looking for is java.nio.channels.DatagramChannel and friends.
