Cheers, Matthew [*] Although the man page suggests that nowadays addr2ascii(3) and ascii2addr(3) should be preferred, but the current implementation of those functions is based on inet_ntoa(3), inet_aton(3). -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
C programming help ?
I need to convert some bytes, which are not an internet address, from machine to network byte order (described in RFC1700). I could do it mannualy, assuming a I386 (or some other) architecture, but then my code will be a lot less portable. Is there any function in libc or somewhere else which will do that conversion for me (and will be updated when new architecture is added)?
