.TH socket_bind6 3
.SH NAME
socket_bind6 \- set the local IP address and port of a socket
.SH SYNTAX
.B #include <socket.h>

int \fBsocket_bind6\fP(int \fIs\fR,char \fIip\fR[16],uint16 \fIport\fR);
.SH DESCRIPTION
socket_bind6 sets the local IP address and TCP/UDP port of a TCP/UDP
socket \fIs\fR to \fIip\fR and \fIport\fR respectively.

If the IP address is ::, the operating system chooses a local IP
address.  If \fIport\fR is 0, the operating system chooses a port.

Normally socket_bind6 returns 0. If anything goes wrong, socket_bind6
returns -1, setting errno appropriately.

.SH EXAMPLE
  #include <socket.h>

  int \fIs\fR;
  char \fIip\fR[16];
  uint16 \fIp\fR;

  \fIs\fR = socket_tcp6();
  socket_bind6(s,ip,p);
  socket_connect6(s,ip,p);
