NAME¶
ares_inet_ntop - convert a network format address to presentation format
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <ares.h>
const char *
ares_inet_ntop(int af, const void *src, char *dst, ares_socklen_t size);
DESCRIPTION¶
This is a portable version with the identical functionality of the commonly
available
inet_ntop.
The ares_inet_ntop() function converts a numeric address into a text string
suitable for presentation. The
af argument shall specify the family of
the address. This can be AF_INET or AF_INET6. The
src argument points
to a buffer holding an IPv4 address if the af argument is AF_INET, or an IPv6
address if the af argument is AF_INET6; the address must be in network byte
order. The
dst argument points to a buffer where the function stores
the resulting text string; it shall not be NULL. The
size argument
specifies the size of this buffer, which shall be large enough to hold the
text string (INET_ADDRSTRLEN (16) characters for IPv4, INET6_ADDRSTRLEN (46)
characters for IPv6).
