scan_ip6_flat(3)					     Library Functions Manual						  scan_ip6_flat(3)

NAME

       scan_ip6_flat - parse an IPv6 number in flat ASCII representation

SYNTAX

       #include <ip6.h>

       int scan_ip6_flat(const char *src,char ip[16]);

DESCRIPTION

       scan_ip6_flat  parses  an  IPv6	number in flat ASCII representation from src and writes the result into ip. It returns the number of bytes
       read from src or 0 if the parsing failed.

       scan_ip6_flat accepts upper and lower case hex letters.

       The flat representation should have been output by fmt_ip6_flat.

EXAMPLE

       #include <str.h>
       #include <ip6.h>

	 char buf[]="00000000000000000000000000000001";
	 char ip[16];
	 if (scan_ip6_flat(buf,ip) != str_len(buf))
	   parse_error();

NAME

       lwres_net_ntop - lightweight resolver IP address presentation

SYNOPSIS

       #include <lwres/net.h>

       const char * lwres_net_ntop(int af, const void *src, char *dst, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

       lwres_net_ntop() converts an IP address of protocol family af -- IPv4 or IPv6 -- at location src from network format to its conventional
       representation as a string. For IPv4 addresses, that string would be a dotted-decimal. An IPv6 address would be represented in colon
       notation as described in RFC1884.

       The generated string is copied to dst provided size indicates it is long enough to store the ASCII representation of the address.

RETURN VALUES

       If successful, the function returns dst: a pointer to a string containing the presentation format of the address.  lwres_net_ntop() returns
       NULL and sets the global variable errno to EAFNOSUPPORT if the protocol family given in af is not supported.
