Detail: New function inet_net_ntop, inet_net_pton, inet_ntop, inet_pton added. These are thread-safe versions of other functions and should be used in preference to things like inet_ntoa, inet_aton. These functions are IPv6 aware - pass AF_INET6 to them if you want IPv6 operations, pass AF_INET if you want IPv4 (ie. current behaviour). Extra address family, protocol family definitions added for IPv6 (and others since they were there in the FreeBSD headers), specifically: AF_INET6, PF_INET6, IN6ADDRSZ. Corresponding extra DNS record types (T_AAAA) have been added too. APIs are standard APIs - documentation added to LibraryDoc. New inetlib/c/* files also contain their own documentation. Admin: Required by TFTPserver (RISC OS version) Note: addition of these macros to the header file does *not* imply that the Internet module now supports IPv6. These are header file macros added for the benefit of the conversion routines. Version 5.30. Tagged as 'TCPIPLibs-5_30'
