using the function "getaddrinfo()" to get the IP address from the hostname you provided;
actually , the "getadrinfo()" function can get not only the IP address,but also more information about hostname,it's pretty useful,
especially for socket programing;
more information about the function ,you can go there : http://www.cnblogs.com/cxz2009/archive/2010/11/19/1881693.html
Below is my program to parsing the IP address you wanted;and it's for both ipv4 and ipv6;
#include #include #include #include #include
#pragma comment(lib, "ws2_32.lib ") //linking to the library
using namespace std;
int main(){
WORD wVersionRequested;
WSADATA wsaData;
int err;
cout<
//******************//
the flowing text is to match the version of the library and to initialize the library, it's necessary for socket programing;
//*********************//
wVersionRequested = MAKEWORD( 1, 1 );
err = WSAStartup( wVersionRequested, &wsaData );//initiate the ws2_32.dll and match the version
if ( err != 0 ) {
return 0;
}
if ( LOBYTE( wsaData.wVersion ) != 1 || //if the version is not matched ,then quit and terminate the ws3_32.dll
HIBYTE( wsaData.wVersion ) != 1 ) {
WSACleanup( );
return 0;
}
