Dear Chris,
In message 50FBB7EA.10601@gmail.com you wrote:
The POSIX solution for this is to use sockaddr which encompasses both v4 and v6 addresses (as well as other socket types). Do we want to add a wrapper type or just work with void *?
Without checking for implications for the implementation I would say that we should avoid void * and rather allow for better type checking.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

design tool -- programmers draw flowcharts after, not before, writing
the programs they describe. - Fred Brooks, Jr.
