NAME
       socket_bind4_reuse - set the local IP address and port of a socket

SYNTAX
       #include <socket.h>

       int socket_bind4_reuse(int s,char ip[4],uint16 port);

DESCRIPTION
       socket_bind4_reuse  sets	 the  local  IP	 address and TCP/UDP port of a
       TCP/UDP socket s to ip and port respectively.

       If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, the operating system chooses a  local  IP
       address.	 If port is 0, the operating system chooses a port.

       Normally	  socket_bind4_reuse   returns	0.  If	anything  goes	wrong,
       socket_bind4_reuse returns -1, setting errno appropriately.

       Unlike socket_bind4 this function will also tell the  operating	system
       that the address is to be reused soon, which turns off the normal pause
       before this IP and port can be bound again.

EXAMPLE
	 #include <socket.h>

	 int s;
	 char ip[4];
	 uint16 p;

	 s = socket_tcp4();
	 socket_bind4_reuse(s,ip,p);
	 socket_connect4(s,ip,p);
