问题描述
我正在尝试使用 unix 套接字来测试向本地主机发送一些 udp 数据包.
I am trying to use unix sockets to test sending some udp packets to localhost.
据我所知，在设置 ip 地址和端口以发送数据包时，我会用转换为网络字节顺序的值填充我的 sockaddr_in.我在 OSX 上，我很惊讶这个
It is my understanding that when setting ip address and port in order to send packets, I would fill my sockaddr_inwith values converted to network-byte order.
I am on OSX and I'm astonished that this
printf("ntohl: %d
", ntohl(4711));
printf("htonl: %d
", htonl(4711));
printf("plain: %d
", 4711);
印刷品
ntohl: 1729232896
htonl: 1729232896
plain: 4711
所以这两个函数实际上都没有返回普通值.我本来希望看到结果不同，因为 x86 是小端 (afaik)，或者与实际数字 4711 相同.显然我不明白 htonl 和 ntohl 和它们的变体都可以.我错过了什么?
So neither function actually returns the plain value. I would have expected to see either the results differ, as x86 is little-endian (afaik), or be identical and the same as the actual number 4711. Clearly I do not understand what htonl and ntohl and their variants do. What am I missing?
相关代码是这样的:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
if (argc != 4)
{
fprintf(stderr, "%s
", HELP);
exit(-1);
}
in_addr_t rec_addr = inet_addr(argv[1]); // first arg is '127.0.0.1'
in_port_t rec_port = atoi(argv[2]); // second arg is port number
printf("Address is %s
Port is %d
", argv[1], rec_port);
char* inpath = argv[3];
char* file_buf;
unsigned long file_size = readFile(inpath, &file_buf); // I am trying to send a file
if (file_size > 0)
{
struct sockaddr_in dest;
dest.sin_family = AF_INET;
dest.sin_addr.s_addr = rec_addr; // here I would use htons
dest.sin_port = rec_port;
printf("ntohs: %d
", ntohl(4711));
printf("htons: %d
", htonl(4711));
printf("plain: %d
", 4711);
int socket_fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
if (socket_fd != -1)
{
int error;
error = sendto(socket_fd, file_buf, file_size + 1, 0, (struct sockaddr*)&dest, sizeof(dest));
if (error == -1)
fprintf(stderr, "%s
", strerror(errno));
else printf("Sent %d bytes.
", error);
}
}
free(file_buf);
return 0;
}
推荐答案
两个函数都反转字节顺序(在小端机器上).为什么会返回参数本身?
Both functions reverse the bytes' order (on little-endian machines). Why would that return the argument itself?
试试 htons(ntohs(4711)) 和 ntohs(htons(4711)).
这篇关于理解 htonl() 和 ntohl()的文章就介绍到这了，希望我们推荐的答案对大家有所帮助，WP2
