'inet_pton': identifier not found

Question

I\'m trying to include the following code in my program but the error (\'inet_pton\': identifier not found) will appeared.

// IPv4:

struct sockaddr_in ip4a         


        

Answer 1

the function

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

is declared in header file:

#include 

if this is Windows (Vista or later) there is Winsock analog to this ANSI version:

INT WSAAPI InetPton(
  _In_   INT  Family,
  _In_   PCTSTR pszAddrString,
  _Out_  PVOID pAddrBuf
);

try #include add Ws2_32.lib
