This example shows how to use the $ASSIGN and $QIOW system services to:
Binding a socket associates an IP address (that is, a 32-bit IPv4 address and a 16-bit TCP or UDP port number) with a socket. To bind a socket, specify an IP address and a port number for the socket.
With the TCP protocol, you can specify an IP address, a port number, both an IP address and port number, or neither.
If the application is using the UDP protocol and needs to receive incoming multicast or broadcast datagrams destined for a specific UDP port, see Section 2.10 for information about specifying the SO_REUSEPORT option when binding the socket.
For an example of binding a socket using the Sockets API, see
Section 2.3.1. For an example of binding a socket using the OpenVMS
system services, see Section 2.3.2.
2.3.1 Binding a Socket (Sockets API)
Example 2-3 shows an example of a TCP application using the bind() function to bind a structure.
The process must have SYSPRV, BYPASS, or OPER privilege to bind port numbers 1 to 1023. |

#include <in.h> /* define internet related constants, */ /* functions, and structures */ #include <socket.h> /* define BSD socket api */ #include <stdio.h> /* define standard i/o functions */ #include <stdlib.h> /* define standard library functions */ #include <string.h> /* define string handling functions */ #define PORTNUM 12345 /* server port number */ int main( void ) { int sockfd; struct sockaddr_in addr; /* * initialize socket address structure */ memset( &addr, 0, sizeof(addr) ); addr.sin_family = AF_INET; addr.sin_port = htons( PORTNUM ); addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY; /* * create a socket */ if ( (sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0 ) { perror( "Failed to create socket" ); exit( EXIT_FAILURE ); } /* * bind ip address and port number to socket */ if ( bind(sockfd,(1) (struct sockaddr *) &addr,(2) sizeof(addr)(3)) < 0 ) { perror( "Failed to bind socket" ); exit( EXIT_FAILURE ); } exit( EXIT_SUCCESS ); } |
In this example, the bind() function includes the following arguments:
Use the IO$_SETMODE or IO$_SETCHAR service of the $QIO system service to bind a socket.
The process must have SYSPRV, BYPASS, or OPER privileges to bind port numbers 1 to 1023. |
Example 2-4 shows how to bind a sockets using OpenVMS system services.

This example shows how to use OpenVMS system services to:
Only server programs that use the TCP protocol need to set a socket to be a listener. This allows the program to receive incoming connection requests. As a connection-oriented protocol, TCP requires a connection; UDP, a connectionless protocol, does not.
The listen() function:
Example 2-5 shows how a TCP server uses the listen() function to set a socket to listen for connection requests and to specify the number of incoming requests that can wait to be queued for processing.

This example shows how to use three separate $QIO calls with the IO$_SETMODE service to:
Alternatively, you can perform all three operations with one $QIO call.
2.5 Initiating a Connection (TCP Protocol)
A TCP client establishes a connection with a TCP server by issuing the connect() function. The connect() function initiates a three-way handshake between the client and the server.
