win_inet_pton
=============
Native inet_pton and inet_ntop implementation for Python on Windows (with ctypes).
Credit Where Credit Is Due
--------------------------
This package is based on code that was originally written by https://github.com/nnemkin here: https://gist.github.com/nnemkin/4966028
Why?
----
I needed this functionality in https://github.com/SerenitySoftwareLLC/cahoots to get full windows support. I figured, since there were other people looking for a solution to this on the net, I should publish it.
Usage
-----
.. code-block:: bash
python -m pip install win_inet_pton
Just import it, and it will auto-add the methods to the socket library:
.. code-block:: python
import win_inet_pton
import socket
socket.inet_pton(...)
socket.inet_ntop(...)
