man socket_recv4 () - receive a UDP datagram

NAME

socket_recv4 - receive a UDP datagram

SYNTAX

#include <socket.h>

int socket_recv4(int s, char* buf, unsigned int len, char ip[4],uint16* port);

DESCRIPTION

socket_recv4 receives up to len bytes starting at buf from a UDP datagram coming in on the socket s. It writes the UDP port to port and the IP address to ip, and returns the number of bytes actually received (or -1 if anything went wrong).

RETURN VALUE

socket_recv4 returns the number of bytes in the datagram if one was received. If not, it returns -1 and sets errno appropriately.

EXAMPLE

#include <socket.h>

int s; char ip[4]; uint16 p; char buf[1000]; int len;

s = socket_tcp4(); socket_bind4(s,ip,p); len = socket_recv4(s,buf,sizeof(buf),ip,&p);
