socket_tcp63diet

Create a non-blocking ipv6 tcp/ip stream socket

Usage

#include <socket.h>

int socket_tcp6();

Overview

socket_tcp6 creates a non-blocking IPv6 TCP/IP stream socket and returns a file descriptor pointing to that socket. If something goes wrong, socket_tcp6 returns -1, setting errno appropriately, without allocating any resources.

Examples

#include <socket.h>

int s;
char ip[16];
uint16 p;

s = socket_tcp6();
socket_bind6(s,ip,p);
socket_connect6(s,ip,p,0);
