Use the -l socket option to qcc to link against this library.
The gai_strerror() function returns a string describing the error code from the getaddrinfo() function. Nonzero error codes are defined in <netdb.h> as follows:
If called with a proper ecode argument, a pointer to a string describing the given error code. If the argument isn't one of the EAI_* values, a pointer to a string whose contents indicate an unknown error.
Don't modify the strings that this function returns. |
