Header: NetLib - sys/socket.h
Sockets - socklib.h

Returns: amount of data sent, or EOF if error
This call performs the same job as Socket_Send or send(), except that the remote address is specified so that it can be used on unconnected sockets. This call is only useful for sockets that do not require a connection such as those using the UDP protocol. For sockets that require a connection such as those using the TCP protocol, you need to call Socket_Connect or connect() before you can use this routine, and the address given to this call is then ignored anyway.
