inet_ntop(3) Library Functions Manual inet_ntop(3) NAME
inet_ntop - Converts a numeric address to a text string LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc.so, libc.a) SYNOPSIS
#include <arpa/inet.h> const char *inet_ntop ( int af, const void *src, char *dst, size_t size) ; PARAMETERS
Specifies the address family. Valid values are AF_INET for an Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) address and AF_INET6 for an IPv6 address. Points to a buffer that contains the numeric Internet address. Points to a buffer that is to contain the text string. Specifies the size of the buffer pointed to by the dst parameter. For Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) addresses, the minimum buffer size is 16 octets. For IPv6 addresses, the minimum buffer size is 46 octets. The <netinet/in.h file defines the INET_ADDRSTRLEN and INET6_ADDRSTRLEN constants, respectively, for for these values. DESCRIPTION
The use of this routine is deprecated. Use the getnameinfo(3) routine instead. The inet_ntop() function converts a binary Internet address value to a formatted text string. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful conversion, the inet_ntop() function returns a pointer to the buffer containing the text string. If the function fails, it returns a NULL pointer. ERRORS
If the inet_ntop() routine call fails, errno is set to one of the following values: The address family specified in af parameter is invalid. The size of the buffer is inadequate. RELATED INFORMATION
