getting a binding error in server program

[beginner91]

so i created a client server program using tcp that works fine. but now i want to use broadcasting (which uses udp) so i'm changing to change my code but i keep running into problems.
when i run my code the error message "ERROR binding: 10047"

and that error means this:

Address family not supported by protocol family.
An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used. All sockets are created with an associated address family (that is, AF_INET for Internet Protocols) and a generic protocol type (that is, SOCK_STREAM). This error is returned if an incorrect protocol is explicitly requested in the socket call, or if an address of the wrong family is used for a socket, for example, in sendto.

here is the code:

int port = 7171;
    if (param)
        port = reinterpret_cast<short>(param);
      SOCKET s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_UDP);
    if (s == -1)
    {
        closesocket(s);
        return 1;
    }

    sockaddr_in brdcastaddr;
    int len = sizeof(brdcastaddr);
    char sbuf[1024]; 
    brdcastaddr.sin_family = AF_INET;
    brdcastaddr.sin_port = htons(port);
    brdcastaddr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_BROADCAST;


    char opt = 1; 
    setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BROADCAST, (char*)&opt, sizeof(char));
    memset(&brdcastaddr,0, sizeof(brdcastaddr));

    int bind_ret = bind(s, (sockaddr*)&brdcastaddr, sizeof(brdcastaddr));           
    if (bind_ret == -1)
    {
        CString text;
        text.Format(_T("ERROR binding: %d"), WSAGetLastError());
        AfxMessageBox(text);
        closesocket(s);
        return 1;
    }

    int ret = sendto(s, sbuf, strlen(sbuf), 0, (sockaddr*)&brdcastaddr, len); 
    if(ret < 0)
    {
        CString text;
        text.Format(_T("ERROR with sendto: %d"), WSAGetLastError());
        AfxMessageBox(text);
        return 1;
    }

    int listen_ret = listen(s, 5); 
    if (listen_ret == -1)
    {
        CString text;
        text.Format(_T("ERROR listening: %d"), WSAGetLastError());
        AfxMessageBox(text);
        closesocket(s);
        return 1;
    }

    while (true)
    {
        sockaddr_in client_addr;
        int len = sizeof(client_addr);
        SOCKET client_sock = accept(s, (sockaddr*)&client_addr, &len);

        ClientInfo info;
        info.sock = client_sock;
        info.addr = inet_ntoa(client_addr.sin_addr);
        {
            Mutex<CriticalSection>::Lock lock(client_cs);
            clients.push_back(info);
        }

        unsigned tid;
        _beginthreadex(NULL, 0, tcp_servers_client, reinterpret_cast<void*>(client_sock), 0, &tid);
    }

    closesocket(s);
    return 0;

This error is returned if an incorrect protocol is explicitly requested in the socket call, or if an address of the wrong family is used for a socket, for example, in sendto.

What do you think this refers to?

And btw, why are you trying to get a new socket with each connection?

SOCKET client_sock = accept(s, (sockaddr*)&client_addr, &len);

From what I know, UDP sockets do not require an accept, due to them being connectionless (which differes from TCP, which is connection-oriented).

Also, if you aim in making a concurrent server, hadling multiple clients, I understand your need for a new socket, but this won't do by accept. In your thread function, you must open a new "connection", a new "server" if you catch my drift. The UDP server will listen to any packets that come on a port, being them from a single computer, or from multiple ones. So, when you try to handle clients concurently, you'll probably need to open a new port for those clients, so that they have a specific channel to communicate with the server, and to not get disturbed by other packages/computers.

so there is something wrong with sendto?

like i said i am trying to change the tcp code to udp so what code do i need?
