Are you sure this is needed in ws_sockaddr_u2ws() or should it rather be done by getsockname() (as your test indicates).
Well, this seemed the best place to do this, as it basically contains the getsockname() logic.
Also, do we know of a real-world application that needs this?
I don't know of any real world applications that need this, but it sure is making my life easier when trying to figure out directplay traces. Native dplay seems to use getsockname() to construct the dplay headers.
Finally, this memset() makes the one in the AF_UNSPEC case redundant, and may itself be redundant with some of the memcpy()s...
True. I'll adapt the patch to do the memset only in the AF_INET case, and only set the sin_zero member to 0.
