Resent, as the original was HTML formatted. My apologies. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Scott Walls <sawalls@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 12:27 PM Subject: getaddrinfo(3) bug To: mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-man@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx manpages-dev version 3.23-1 Ubuntu 10.04 man 3 getaddrinfo On line 74-75, in the description of the ai_flags member, it says "Multiple flags are specified by logically OR-ing them together." This should say "Multiple flags are specified by bitwise OR-ing them together." I believe this to be true for the following reasons: -the result of logical OR ( || ) is always 1 or 0 (this is how it is defined in Harbinson and Steele, at least), so it would be impossible to extract out the different bitflags -on lines 80 "and ai_flags to (AI_V4MAPPED | AI_ADDRCONFIG)" it seems that bitwise or is the proper choice If you need any more information, please feel free to ask.
