NAME
       lwres_net_ntop - lightweight resolver IP address presentation

SYNOPSIS
       #include <lwres/net.h>

       const char * lwres_net_ntop(int af, const void *src, char *dst, size_t
       size);


DESCRIPTION
       lwres_net_ntop() converts an IP address of protocol family af  —	 IPv4
       or IPv6 — at location src from network format to its conventional rep-
       resentation as a string. For IPv4 addresses, that string	 would	be  a
       dotted-decimal. An IPv6 address would be represented in colon notation
       as described in RFC1884.

       The generated string is copied to dst provided size  indicates  it  is
       long enough to store the ASCII representation of the address.

RETURN VALUES
       If  successful,	the  function returns dst: a pointer to a string con-
       taining the  presentation  format  of  the  address.  lwres_net_ntop()
       returns NULL and sets the global variable errno to EAFNOSUPPORT if the
       protocol family given in af is not supported.

SEE ALSO
       RFC1884, inet_ntop(3), errno(3).
