Internet addresses

A TCP/IP program uses a socket address encapsulated in a TInetAddr object. This is the expected form for passing address information when using RSocket and RHostResolver for TCP/IP. A TInetAddr object stores the IP address and port of a socket.

A program may have to handle IP addresses represented in other formats as well:

All addresses are handled in the native byte order, so you do not need to use byte-order conversion functions, such as BSD’s htonl() or htons().
