The data to be sent is expected to be in sock-msg and be sock-msglen bytes. To send a packet, bnet_send() first writes four bytes in network byte order than indicate the size of the following data packet. It returns: <P> <PRE> Returns 0 on failure Returns 1 on success </PRE> <P> In the case of a failure, an error message will be sent to the JCR contained within the bsock packet. <P> <BR><HR> <ADDRESS> 2010-06-14 </ADDRESS> </BODY> </HTML>
