PR_SendTo
=========
Sends bytes a socket to a specified destination.
Syntax
------
.. code::
#include <prio.h>
PRInt32 PR_SendTo(
PRFileDesc *fd,
const void *buf,
PRInt32 amount,
PRIntn flags,
const PRNetAddr *addr,
PRIntervalTime timeout);
Parameters
~~~~~~~~~~
The function has the following parameters:
``fd``
A pointer to a :ref:`PRFileDesc` object representing a socket.
``buf``
A pointer to a buffer containing the data to be sent.
``amount``
The size of ``buf`` (in bytes).
``flags``
This obsolete parameter must always be zero.
``addr``
A pointer to the address of the destination.
``timeout``
A value of type :ref:`PRIntervalTime` specifying the time limit for
completion of the receive operation.
Returns
~~~~~~~
The function returns one of the following values:
- A positive number indicates the number of bytes successfully sent.
- The value -1 indicates a failure. The reason for the failure can be
obtained by calling :ref:`PR_GetError`.
Description
-----------
:ref:`PR_SendTo` sends a specified number of bytes from a socket to the
specified destination address. The calling thread blocks until all bytes
are sent, a timeout has occurred, or there is an error.
