[2] after using it, does the route need to be removed explicitly, or is closing the socket i used thru it enough? [3] does adding a new route or deleting a route only apply to the context of my app or does it affect the entire system? [4] i have already played with this a little, but the examples i'm going off of are a little over-the-top. if you know of a simple example of how this is done in C, please post a link.
