dotted-to-ipaddr

$Revision: 5.0.2.2 $

Function

Package: ACL-SOCKET

Arguments: (dotted &key errorp)

If dotted is a string like "192.132.95.84" (or one of the extensions to this format), this function converts the string to an unsigned 32-bit IP address. If there are any invalid characters in the string then an error will be signaled unless the value of errorp keyword is nil, in which case nil is returned.
