66 <p><code class="function">lwres_net_ntop()</code>
67 converts an IP address of protocol family
68 <em class="parameter"><code>af</code></em> — IPv4 or IPv6 — at
69 location <em class="parameter"><code>src</code></em> from network format to its
70 conventional representation as a string. For IPv4 addresses,
71 that string would be a dotted-decimal. An IPv6 address would be
72 represented in colon notation as described in RFC1884.
75 The generated string is copied to <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em>
77 <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> indicates it is long enough to
79 ASCII representation of the address.
82 <div class="refsect1" lang="en">
83 <a name="id2543411"></a><h2>RETURN VALUES</h2>
85 If successful, the function returns <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em>:
86 a pointer to a string containing the presentation format of the
87 address. <code class="function">lwres_net_ntop()</code> returns
88 <span class="type">NULL</span> and sets the global variable
89 <code class="constant">errno</code> to <span class="errorcode">EAFNOSUPPORT</span> if
90 the protocol family given in <em class="parameter"><code>af</code></em> is
