Hi Gary,

ok, I would agree that a change like globally moving from dbgSysInetAddr to 
something like dbgsysPToN should at least be handled by a different change.

Best regards
Christoph

Subject: Re: JDK-8080990: libdt_socket/socket_md.c(202) : warning C4996: 
'gethostbyname': Use getaddrinfo() or GetAddrInfoW()

One more to fix to cover the remaining test failures I was seeing.

Previously, using inet_addr, there was a single -1 return that needed to be 
checked.
Now that we're using inet_pton, there is a -1 and a 0 error return to be 
considered.

My preference would be to leave the dbgSysInetAddr name unchanged and have the 
low level
check for inet_pton errors to simply return the -1 that was previously checked.

This specific issue is about the deprecation of library functions on windows. 
I'd recommend not
upgrading the other platforms at this time until a complete update is done for 
ipv6 support.

I'll post a new webrev when I've retested using the updated inet_pton error 
checking.

The fix looks good. I would think we should rename dbgsysInetAddr to dbgsysPToN 
and use inet_pton also for the Unix/Linux platforms. It would be the better 
choice there as well, though we still only support IPv4 in libdt_socket.

Thanks for spotting/fixing that.
