comment: 
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: Listens for connections, using the specified <tt>int</tt> as the backlog. A call to <em>listen</em> only applies if the <tt>socket</tt> is of type SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_SEQPACKET.

    body: <tt>backlog</tt> - the maximum length of the queue for pending connections.
  type: :BULLET

- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::VERB 
  body: "     require 'socket'\n     include Socket::Constants\n     socket = Socket.new( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 )\n     sockaddr = Socket.pack_sockaddr_in( 2200, 'localhost' )\n     socket.bind( sockaddr )\n     socket.listen( 5 )\n"

  text: Unix-based Exceptions
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: On unix based systems the above will work because a new <tt>sockaddr</tt> struct is created on the address ADDR_ANY, for an arbitrary port number as handed off by the kernel. It will not work on Windows, because Windows requires that the <tt>socket</tt> is bound by calling <em>bind</em> before it can <em>listen</em>.
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: If the <em>backlog</em> amount exceeds the implementation-dependent maximum queue length, the implementation's maximum queue length will be used.
- !ruby/struct:SM::Flow::P 
  body: "On unix-based based systems the following system exceptions may be raised if the call to <em>listen</em> fails:"

    body: Errno::EADDRINUSE - the socket's local address is already in use. This usually occurs during the execution of <em>bind</em> but could be delayed if the call to <em>bind</em> was to a partially wildcard address (involving ADDR_ANY) and if a specific address needs to be commmitted at the time of the call to <em>listen</em>
