#34706 [Opn]: Confusing socket_bind() documentation

ID: 34706 Updated by: simp@php.net Reported By: garmoan at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Actually that's not what the function does. It assigns the address and port to a unbound socket. Opening the connection is still left for socket_listen or socket_connect.

The socket_bind() documentation could do with a couple extra lines to explain what it actually does. i.e. socket_bind(), in terms of AF_INET, opens the port on the specified address, and in terms of AF_UNIX, creates the *.sock file for inter-process communication. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34706&edit=1
