NAME

libsocket– the sockets library

SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag . . . ] file . . . -lsocket [ library . . . ]

DESCRIPTION

Functions in this library provide routines that provide the socket internetworking interface, primarily used with the TCP/IP protocol suite.

The shared object libsocket.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined below.

For additional information on shared object interfaces, see intro(3).
