In UDP connection at client side, I am not calling connect API so
it may happen that shutdown failed as man page tells that shutdown
fails if socket is not connected. But am I right? Also then in
Tiger & Panther why am I not getting any error & only in Leopard, I
am getting the error?
I have not looked at the source (which you can do yourself), I will
guess that this change is due to the "Unix branding" effort that went
into 10.5. A lot of changes were made so that Mac OS X will conform
to whatever spec was used.
Also, I believe that 'shutdown' implies close (after shutdown, your
descriptor is closed; there is a bit of ambiguity regarding the two
sides of the connection, and when shutdown completes...).
