in_addr_t inet_addr

(

const char *

strptr

)

Ascii internet address interpretation routine.

Parse a string to produce an internet address. The value returned is in network order.

Deprecated:

use inet_aton in preference.

Parameters:

strptr

The IP address in ascii represenation (e.g. "127.0.0.1")

Returns:

ip An address in network order

int inet_aton	(	const char *	strptr,
		struct in_addr *	addrptr
	)

Convert text into internet address.

Check whether "cp" is a valid ascii representation of an Internet address and convert to a binary address.

This replaces inet_addr, the return value from which cannot distinguish between failure and a local broadcast address.

Deprecated:

use inet_pton and inet_ntop in preference

Parameters:

	strptr	IP address in ascii represenation (e.g. "127.0.0.1")
	addrptr	pointer to which to save the ip address in network order

Returns:

1 if cp could be converted to addr, 0 on failure

char* inet_ntoa

(

struct in_addr

inaddr

)

Convert internet address into textural representation.

Convert numeric IP address into decimal dotted ASCII representation. returns ptr to static buffer. not thread safe.

Parameters:

inaddr

The ip address to convert in network order.

Returns:

pointer to a global static buffer that holds the ASCII represenation of addr.
