socket_connect4(3) Library Functions Manual socket_connect4(3) NAME socket_connect4 - attempt to make a TCP connection SYNTAX #include <libowfat/socket.h> int socket_connect4(int s,const char ip[4],uint16 port); DESCRIPTION socket_connect4 attempts to make a connection from TCP socket s to TCP port port on IP address ip. socket_connect4 may return * 0, to indicate that the connection succeeded (and succeeded immedi- ately, if the socket is non-blocking) * -1, setting errno to error_inprogress or error_wouldblock, to indi- cate that the socket is non-blocking * -1, setting errno to something else, to indicate that the connection failed (and failed immediately, if the socket is non-blocking). When a background connection succeeds or fails, s becomes writable; you can use socket_connected to see whether the connection succeeded. If the con- nection failed, socket_connected returns 0, setting errno appropriately. Once a TCP socket is connected, you can use the read and write system calls to transmit data. You can call socket_connect4 without calling socket_bind4. This has the effect as first calling socket_bind4 with IP address 0.0.0.0 and port 0.
