getsockname (Bluetooth) (Windows CE 5.0)
This function retrieves the local name for a socket.
Note This function is actually a Winsock function. However, the information that is presented in it is specific to Bluetooth.
int getsockname(SOCKET s,struct sockaddr FAR* name,int FAR* namelen);
Parameters
- s
[in] Descriptor identifying a socket. - name
[out] Receives the address (name) of the socket. - namelen

Return Values
If no error occurs, this function returns zero. If an error occurs, a value of SOCKET_ERROR is returned, and a specific error code can be retrieved by calling WSAGetLastError.
Remarks
Use getsockname to retrieve the server channel allocated to the socket by a call to bind and the Bluetooth address of local device.
The following example code shows how to use getsockname.
SOCKADDR_BTH sab;
int len = sizeof(sab);
if (0 == getsockname (s, &sab, &len)) {
wprintf (L"Local Bluetooth device is %04x%08x, server channel = %d\n",
GET_NAP(sab.btAddr), GET_SAP(sab.btAddr), sab.port);
}
