This function is missing on some platforms:

mingw.

The @code{inet_ntoa} function need not be reentrant, and consequently
|
|
is not required to be thread safe. Implementations of
|
|
@code{inet_ntoa} typically write the time stamp into static buffer.
|
|
If two threads call @code{inet_ntoa} at roughly the same time, you
|
|
might end up with the wrong date in one of the threads, or some
|
|
undefined string.

Note: @code{inet_ntoa} is specific for @acronym{IPv4} addresses.
|
|
A protocol independent function is @code{inet_ntop}.
