NAME

6       socket_bind4_reuse - set the local IP address and port of a socket
7

SYNTAX

9       #include <socket.h>
10
11       int socket_bind4_reuse(int s,char ip[4],uint16 port);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       socket_bind4_reuse  sets  the  local  IP  address and TCP/UDP port of a
15       TCP/UDP socket s to ip and port respectively.
16
17       If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, the operating system chooses a  local  IP
18       address.  If port is 0, the operating system chooses a port.
19
20       Normally   socket_bind4_reuse   returns  0.  If  anything  goes  wrong,
21       socket_bind4_reuse returns -1, setting errno appropriately.
22
23       Unlike socket_bind4 this function will also tell the  operating  system
24       that the address is to be reused soon, which turns off the normal pause
25       before this IP and port can be bound again.

EXAMPLE

28         #include <socket.h>
29
30         int s;
31         char ip[4];
32         uint16 p;
33
34         s = socket_tcp4();
35         socket_bind4_reuse(s,ip,p);
36         socket_connect4(s,ip,p);
