SYNOPSIS
#include <netrose/rose.h>
int rose_aton(const char *cp, char *inp);
char * rose_ntoa(rose_address *cp);
int rose_cmp(rose_address *a1, rose_address *a2);
DESCRIPTION
The rose_aton() converts the ROSE address cp from an ASCII representation into network format.
The rose_ntoa() converts the ROSE address cp that is network format to a string that is the ASCII representation of the address.
The rose_cmp() compares the two ROSE address a1 and a2 that are in network format.
RETURN VALUE
The rose_ntoa() and rose_aton() functions return zero if all went OK, -1 if not.
The rose_cmp() returns 0 if addresses pointer by a1 and a2 are identical, 1 otherwise.
