       Compile and link with -llibrecast.

DESCRIPTION

       The  mdex_put  function  stores the value of entry in the multicast index mdex, using hash
       (of length hashlen) as the key.

       entry may be NULL, and an entry will still be created.

RETURN VALUE

       mdex_put() returns zero on success.  On error,  -1  is  returned,  and  errno  is  set  to
       indicate the error.

ERRORS

       EINVAL Invalid argument. Both mdex and hash are required (not NULL), and hashlen > 0.

       ENOMEM Not enough space/cannot allocate memory (POSIX.1-2001).
