When it was mentioned if ares_inet_ntop and ares_inet_ntop were to become fully documented or removed. I didn't realize function arguments data types would be modified. I know these didn't actually belong to the official public API, but their interfaces have been stable for more than 8 years, up to now. If socklen_t is the way to go, then we should instead use ares_socklen_t, which has been publicly available through ares.h for more than 4 years now. -- -=[Yang]=-
