Create a non-blocking tcp/ip stream socket

Usage

#include <socket.h>

int socket_tcp4();

Overview

socket_tcp4 creates a non-blocking TCP/IP stream socket and returns a file descriptor pointing to that socket. If something goes wrong, socket_tcp4 returns -1, setting errno appropriately, without allocating any resources.

Examples

#include <socket.h>

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

s = socket_tcp4();
socket_bind4(s,ip,p);
socket_connect4(s,ip,p);
