struct hostent[edit]
Internally the sysmodule uses the standard hostent struct, but using s16 for h_addrtype and h_length:
struct hostent { char* h_name; char** h_aliases; s16 h_addrtype; s16 h_length; char** h_addr_list; };
However, the struct returned is different from the internal one:
struct hostent_3ds_t { s16 h_addrtype; //< Host address type s16 h_length; //< Length of address. Maximum of 16 for IPV6 s16 h_addr_count; //< Number of addresses returned. Maximum of 24 s16 h_alias_count; //< Number of aliases returned. Maximum of 24 char[256] h_name; //< Official name of host char[256][24] h_aliases; //< Alias list char[16][24] h_addr_list; //< List of addresses from name server };
Its size is of 0x1A88 bytes.
