Calling Listen on UDP Socket

Hi All,

Can I able to call listen on UDP Socket?
Linux listen man page says, "Listen call applies only to sockets of
type SOCK_STREAM & SOCK_SEQPACKET".

Thanks in Advance!

No - there are no connections to listen for on UDP sockets. You probably
want to use recv() or recvmsg() to read your packets.
