#9873 closed Bug Report - General (fixed)

New mutlicast socket code breaks windows build

Reported by: markk Owned by: danielk
Priority: minor Milestone: 0.25
Component: Ports - Windows Version: Master Head
Severity: medium Keywords:
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description

The main problem is that inet_pton is not available on MingW - and I'm not familiar enough with sockets to figure out a replacement.

The *nix only includes in mmulticastsocketdevice.h also need to be ifdef'd out for windows (as in mmulticastsocketdevice.cpp)

I don't know why inet_pton isn't working, it should be according to this:

But it is unnecessary here, QHostAddress has the toIPv4Address() method for us.

Is this patch sufficient to fix windows compiles?
