ARES_INET_PTON(3)					     ARES_INET_PTON(3)

NAME
       ares_inet_pton  -  convert  an IPv4 or IPv6 address from text to binary
       form

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ares.h>

       const char *ares_inet_pton(int af, const char *src, void *dst);

DESCRIPTION
       This is a portable version with the identical functionality of the com‐
       monly available inet_pton.

       The ares_inet_pton() function converts the address in its standard text
       presentation form into its numeric binary form. The af  argument	 shall
       specify	the  family  of	 the address. The AF_INET and AF_INET6 address
       families shall be supported. The src  argument  points  to  the	string
       being  passed  in.  The	dst argument points to a buffer into which the
       function stores the numeric address; this shall be large enough to hold
       the numeric address (32 bits for AF_INET, 128 bits for AF_INET6).

       made properly publicly available in c-ares for real in version 1.10.0
