socket_tcp6 - Man Page

create a non-blocking IPv6 TCP/IP stream socket

Syntax

#include <socket.h>

int socket_tcp6();

Description

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.

Example

 #include <socket.h>

 int s;
 char ip[16];
 uint16 p;

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