Find UDP Port Number

Sorry for the cross post. I accidently posted in comp.lang.learning.c+
+. I'm reposting here for the higher activity.

I'm working on a socket programming project for school. I created a
UDP socket. The socket works fine, my server communication works
without a hitch. However, I'm trying to print out the local IP
Address and Port for the client. When I print out the Port, it shows
up at 0. I was looking at another article, and it says you have to
call bind() first to give the Port a value. When I do this, the
communication with the server breaks down, I think the client sends
messages to itself.

Thanks for any help.
