ares_inet_ntop(3)          Library Functions Manual          ares_inet_ntop(3)


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).
