Question
struct addrinfo *myAddrinfo, *curMyAddrinfo, hint;
memset(&hint, 0, sizeof(struct addrinfo));
hint.ai_family = AF_INET;
hint.ai_protocol = AI_PASSIVE;
hint.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
const int code = getaddrinfo(NULL, SERVER_PORT, &hint, &myAddrinfo);
if ((code) != 0) {
printf("getaddrinfo error occours: %s ",
gai_strerror(code));
return 1;
}
this gives the error: "ai_socktype not supported"
if i comment out the hint.ai_protocol = AI_PASSIVE;
it will get through, but i am wondering why it happens?
thanks for your time
