Hi all, The function StrToHostAddr in unit sockets returns for '127.0.0.1' on a little endian system the in_addr: s_bytes[1]=1 s_bytes[2]=0 s_bytes[3]=0 s_bytes[4]=127
Is this correct? The documentation for HostAddrToStr writes "Basically, it is the same as NetAddrToStr, but with the bytes in correct order.": http://lazarus-ccr.sourceforge.net/docs/rtl/sockets/hostaddrtostr.html This sounds as if a Net and a Host uses different ordered bytes, which makes the whole point of an "and" mask pointless.
