Winsock API: send

参考MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms740149(v=vs.85).aspx

The send function sends data on a connected socket.

Syntax

int send(
  _In_  SOCKET s,
  _In_  const char *buf,
  _In_  int len,
  _In_  int flags
);

Parameters

s [in]

A descriptor identifying a connected socket.

buf [in]

A pointer to a buffer containing the data to be transmitted.

len [in]

The length, in bytes, of the data in buffer pointed to by the buf parameter.

flags [in]

A set of flags that specify the way in which the call is made. This parameter is constructed by using the bitwise OR operator with any of the following values.

Value	Meaning
MSG_DONTROUTE	Specifies that the data should not be subject to routing. A Windows Sockets service provider can choose to ignore this flag.
MSG_OOB	Sends OOB data (stream-style socket such as SOCK_STREAM only.

 

Return value

If no error occurs, send returns the total number of bytes sent, which can be less than the number requested to be sent in the len parameter. Otherwise, a value of SOCKET_ERROR is returned, and a specific error code can be retrieved by calling WSAGetLastError.

Remarks

The send function is used to write outgoing data on a connected socket.

For message-oriented sockets (address family of AF_INET or AF_INET6, type of SOCK_DGRAM, and protocol of IPPROTO_UDP, for example), care must be taken not to exceed the maximum packet size of the underlying provider. The maximum message packet size for a provider can be obtained by calling getsockopt with the optname parameter set to SO_MAX_MSG_SIZE to retrieve the value of socket option. If the data is too long to pass atomically through the underlying protocol, the error WSAEMSGSIZE is returned, and no data is transmitted.

The successful completion of a send function does not indicate that the data was successfully delivered and received to the recipient. This function only indicates the data was successfully sent.

Example Code
