Hi, a quick word of warning: I'm currently on vacation with only a tablet (gasp!), so I can only read the code, but not try anything out... |

This adds the functions
ng_ipv6_addr_to_str()andng_ipv6_addr_from_str()(basicallyinet_pton6()andinet_ntop6()specialized for our types [I only made small rewrites to them]) to theng_ipv6_addrmodule. They only are included into the binary if they are used (since they are implemented in their own .c-files), and only are intended for debug output and the shell.The rational of including them to
ng_ipv6_addris that it can be used forDEBUG()output without including thenet_helpmodule. Additionally, I was able to simplify the implementation was a little bit due to the benefits ofng_ipv6_addr_t(as opposed to just usingchar *) andnetwork_uint32_t(for IPv4) addresses.I also removed one
snprintf()call (for just creating a hexadecimal number) and replaced it with manual formation. This makes this implementation much better suited for embedded devices.
