    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_make</function> creates an
    <type>ne_inet_addr</type> object from a raw binary network
    address; for instance the four bytes <literal>0x7f 0x00 0x00
    0x01</literal> represent the IPv4 address
    <literal>127.0.0.1</literal>.  The object returned is suitable for
    passing to <function>ne_sock_connect</function>.  A binary IPv4
    address contains four bytes; a binary IPv6 address contains
    sixteen bytes; addresses passed must be in network byte
    order.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_cmp</function> compares two network
    address objects; returning zero only if they are identical.  The
    objects need not have the same address type; if the addresses are
    not of the same type, the return value is guaranteed to be
    non-zero.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_print</function> prints a human-readable
    string representation of a network address into a buffer, for
    instance the string <literal>"127.0.0.1"</literal>.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_typeof</function> returns the type of the
    given network address object.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_put</function> changes an existing
    network address object to a new raw byte representation given by
    parameter <parameter>type</parameter> (which can be different to
    the current type of the object). The raw data must be of
    length 4 bytes for an IPv4 address, or 16 bytes for an IPv6
    address.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_parse</function> parses a string
    representation of a network address (such as
    <literal>"127.0.0.1"</literal> and creates a network address
    object to represent the parsed address.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_raw</function> writes the raw byte
    representation of a network address to the provided buffer.  The
    bytes are written in network byte order; the buffer must be of
    suitable length for the type of address (4 bytes for an IPv4
    address, 16 bytes for an IPv6 address).</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_reverse</function> performs a reverse
    name lookup on the address object, writing the (first) hostname
    associated with the IP address to the provided buffer.  If the
    hostname is longer than the buffer it will be silently truncated;
    on success the string written to the buffer is always
    &nul;-terminated.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_free</function> releases the memory
    associated with a network address object.</para>

  </refsect1>

  <refsect1>
    <title>Return value</title>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_make</function> returns &null; if the
    address type passed is not supported (for instance on a platform
    which does not support IPv6).</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_print</function> returns the
    <parameter>buffer</parameter> pointer, and never &null;.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_parse</function> returns a network
    address object on success, or &null; on failure to parse the
    <parameter>address</parameter> parameter.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_reverse</function> returns zero on
    success or non-zero if no hostname is associated with the
    address.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_raw</function> returns the
    <parameter>buffer</parameter> parameter, and never &null;.</para>

    <para><function>ne_iaddr_put</function> returns the passed in
    <parameter>ia</parameter> parameter, or &null; if the address type
    passed is not supported (for instance on a platform which does not
    support IPv6).</para>

    <title>Examples</title>

    <para>The following example connects a socket to port 80 at the
    address <literal>127.0.0.1</literal>.</para>
 
    <programlisting>unsigned char addr[] = "\0x7f\0x00\0x00\0x01";
ne_inet_addr *ia;

ia = ne_iaddr_make(ne_iaddr_ipv4, addr);
if (ia != NULL) {
    ne_socket *sock = ne_sock_connect(ia, 80);
    ne_iaddr_free(ia);
    /* ... */
} else {
    /* ... */
