getpeername

#include <rtl.h>

int getpeername (
    int sock,          /* Socket descriptor */
    SOCKADDR *name,    /* Pointer to address structure */
    int *namelen);     /* Length of address structure */

The getpeername function retrieves the address of the peer to which a socket is connected.

The argument sock specifies a socket descriptor returned from a previous call to socket.

The argument name is a pointer to the SOCKADDR structure. If name is not NULL, the remote end IP address and port number is filled in.

The argument namelen is a pointer to the address length. It should initially contain the amount of space pointed to by name. On return it contains the actual length of the address returned in bytes.

The getpeername function is in the RL-TCPnet library. The prototype is defined in rtl.h.

note

• You must call the socket function before any other function calls to the BSD socket.
• If a negative number is returned, it represents an error code.

The getpeername function returns the following result:

• SCK_SUCCESS
  The function call is successful.
• SCK_EINVALID
  The socket identified with sock is invalid.
• SCK_ERROR
  The socket is not created.
