ARES_INET_NTOP(3)      C LIBRARY FUNCTIONS      ARES_INET_NTOP(3)

NAME

     ares_inet_ntop - convert a network format address to presen-
     tation format

SYNOPSIS

     #include <ares.h>

     const char *
     ares_inet_ntop(int af, const void *src, char

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 argu-
     ment 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).
