---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004572) shware_systems (reporter) - 2019-09-27 19:58 http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1289#c4572 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- While not directly referenced, the addrinfo structure and getnameinfo() interface use the incomplete sockaddr type, which in practice will be completed with members of those types for IP4 and IP6 sockets. The current wording is, I strongly suspect, from known implementations all doing a #include of another header that declared these types and completed sockaddr before any of the new declarations and prototypes, to leave open some implementaton may choose not to do it this way. The types are required, however, as sockaddr is required to support IP4, at least.
