Bug #72341 for Socket-GetAddrInfo: Ability to getnameinfo on only host or service name

Subject:

Ability to getnameinfo on only host or service name

At the C level, one or other buffers to getnameinfo() can be NULL, so it doesn't look up the host or service name. The Perl API has no way to specify this so you can't, for example, avoid a DNS lookup. This should be added. Likely the simplest approach is to add a 3rd argument, taking two extra constants: my ( $err, $host, undef ) = getnameinfo $addr, $flags, NIx_NOSERVICE; my ( $err, undef, $service ) = getnameinfo $addr, $flags, NIx_NOHOST; -- Paul Evans
