David Watson <bai...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: I meant to say that FreeBSD provides the SUN_LEN macro, but it turns out that Linux does as well, and its version behaves the same as FreeBSD's. The FreeBSD man pages state that the terminating null is not part of the address:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=unix&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8.1-RELEASE&format=html The examples in Stevens/Rago's "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment" also pass address lengths to bind(), etc. that do not include the null. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8372> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
