getpeername Function
The getpeername function retrieves the address of the peer to which a socket is connected.
Syntax
int getpeername(
__in SOCKET s,
__out struct sockaddr *name,
__inout int *namelen
);
Parameter
s [in]
A descriptor identifying a connected socket.name [out]
The SOCKADDR structure that receives the address of the peer.namelen [in, out]
A pointer to the size, in bytes, of the name parameter.
Rückgabewert
If no error occurs, getpeername returns zero. Otherwise, a value of SOCKET_ERROR is returned, and a specific error code can be retrieved by calling WSAGetLastError.
| Error code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| WSANOTINITIALISED | A successful WSAStartup call must occur before using this function. |
| WSAENETDOWN | The network subsystem has failed. |
| WSAEFAULT | The name or the namelen parameter is not in a valid part of the user address space, or the namelen parameter is too small. |
| WSAEINPROGRESS | A blocking Windows Sockets 1.1 call is in progress, or the service provider is still processing a callback function. |
| WSAENOTCONN | The socket is not connected. |
| WSAENOTSOCK | The descriptor is not a socket. |
Hinweise
The getpeername function retrieves the address of the peer connected to the socket s and stores the address in the SOCKADDR structure identified by the name parameter. This function works with any address family and it simply returns the address to which the socket is connected. The getpeername function can be used only on a connected socket.
For datagram sockets, only the address of a peer specified in a previous connect call will be returned. Any address specified by a previous sendto call will not be returned by getpeername.
On call, the namelen parameter contains the size, in bytes, of the name buffer. On return, the namelen parameter contains the actual size, in bytes, of the name parameter returned.
