ARES_INET_NTOP(3)      FreeBSD Library Functions Manual      ARES_INET_NTOP(3)

NAME
       ares_inet_ntop - convert a network format address to presentation
       format

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ares.h>

       const char *
       ares_inet_ntop(int af, const void *src, char *dst, ares_socklen_t size);

DESCRIPTION
       This is a portable version with the identical functionality of the
       commonly available inet_ntop.

       The ares_inet_ntop() function converts a numeric address into a text
       string suitable for presentation. The af argument shall specify the
       family of the address. This can be AF_INET or AF_INET6.  The src
       argument points to a buffer holding an IPv4 address if the af argument
       is AF_INET, or an IPv6 address if the af argument is AF_INET6; the
       address must be in network byte order. The dst argument points to a
       buffer where the function stores the resulting text string; it shall
       not be NULL. The size argument specifies the size of this buffer, which
       shall be large enough to hold the text string (INET_ADDRSTRLEN (16)
       characters for IPv4, INET6_ADDRSTRLEN (46) characters for IPv6).
