1129 WSADATA

typedef struct WSAData { 

WORD wVersion;  // Version of the Windows Sockets

WORD wHighVersion;  // Highest version of the Windows Sockets

char szDescription[WSADESCRIPTION_LEN+1];  // description of the Windows Sockets implementation. The text (up to 256 characters in length) char szSystemStatus[WSASYS_STATUS_LEN+1];  // relevant status or configuration information

unsigned short iMaxSockets;  // ignore

unsigned short iMaxUdpDg;  // ignore

char FAR* lpVendorInfo; // ignore

} WSADATA, *LPWSADATA;

Note  An application should ignore the iMaxsockets, iMaxUdpDg, and lpVendorInfo members in WSADATA if the value in wVersion after a successful call to WSAStartup is at least 2.

当前的实际用法是：

       if (WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2, 2), &wsaData) != 0)

    {

        return 0;

    } // 但是变量wsaData再也没有出现过，代码还不能删除，

Example Code

The following example demonstrates the use of the WSADATA structure.

WORD wVersionRequested;

WSADATA wsaData;

int err;

wVersionRequested = MAKEWORD( 2, 2 );

err = WSAStartup( wVersionRequested, &wsaData );

if ( err != 0 ) {

    /* Tell the user that we could not find a usable */

    /* WinSock DLL.                                  */

    return;

}

/* Confirm that the WinSock DLL supports 2.2.*/

/* Note that if the DLL supports versions greater    */

/* than 2.2 in addition to 2.2, it will still return */

/* 2.2 in wVersion since that is the version we      */

/* requested.                                        */

if ( LOBYTE( wsaData.wVersion ) != 2 ||

        HIBYTE( wsaData.wVersion ) != 2 ) {

    /* Tell the user that we could not find a usable */

    /* WinSock DLL.                                  */

    WSACleanup( );

    return;

}
