RTOS/TM4C1294KCPDT: What header files should be included to use BSD style NDK and generic support calls?

Part Number: TM4C1294KCPDT

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

I include <sys/socket.h> to get BSD sockets as do the examples in the resource explorer. I need to use inet_pton().

inet_pton() is in <ti/ndk/inc/nettools/inc/inet.h>

<ti/ndk/inc/nettools/inc/inet.h> needs IPN defined which is in <ti/ndk/inc/usertype.h>

<ti/ndk/inc/usertype.h> will not work with <sys/socket.h> because they both define IP6N, but <sys/socket.h> does not define IPN.

What is the appropriate set up to resolve this game of whack-a-mole?

May I offer (in the resolution of, "Whack-a-Mole") ... "Close your eyes (even) tighter;" Add "padding to the walls;" and "bars to the windows."
In other words - make "your place" more like "Chez cb1's." (We're told that "mole meat" - like most everything - "Tastes like Chicken.") Enjoy...

Hi Peter,

Can you try including arpa/inet.h?

So, you would just have #includes, like this:

#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>

This header file says "dummy file for compatibility with BSD apps"

This is exactly what I was attempting before you commented...
