bind, bind_nw
bind,
bind_nw
The bind and bind_nw functions associate a socket with a specific local IPX address
data structure.
error
is the return value. If the call is successful, a zero is returned. If the call is not
successful, -1 is returned. If the call failed, the external variable errno is set as
indicated below in “Errors.”
socket
specifies the socket number for the socket, as returned by the call to socket or
socket_nw.
address_ptr
points to the IPX address data structure to which the socket is to be bound.
