socket_bind4_reuse(3)	    Library Functions Manual	   socket_bind4_reuse(3)

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

SYNTAX
     #include <libowfat/socket.h>

     int socket_bind4_reuse(int s,char ip[4],uint16 port);

DESCRIPTION
     socket_bind4_reuse  sets the local IP address and TCP/UDP port of a TCP/UDP
     socket s to ip and port respectively.

     If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, the operating system chooses a local  IP  ad-
     dress.  If port is 0, the operating system chooses a port.

     Normally	socket_bind4_reuse   returns   0.   If	 anything   goes  wrong,
     socket_bind4_reuse returns -1, setting errno appropriately.

     Unlike socket_bind4 this function will also tell the operating system  that
     the  address  is to be reused soon, which turns off the normal pause before
     this IP and port can be bound again.

EXAMPLE
       #include <libowfat/socket.h>

       int s;
       char ip[4];
       uint16 p;

       s = socket_tcp4();
       socket_bind4_reuse(s,ip,p);
       socket_connect4(s,ip,p);
