- socket SOCKET,DOMAIN,TYPE,PROTOCOL
-
Opens a socket of the specified kind and attaches it to filehandle SOCKET. DOMAIN,
TYPE, and PROTOCOL are specified the same as for the system call of the same name. You
should use Socket first to get the proper definitions imported. See the
examples in perlipc/"Sockets:
Client/Server Communication".
On systems that support a close-on-exec flag on files, the flag will be set for the
newly opened file descriptor, as determined by the value of $^F. See perlvar/$^F.
