[Log4cpp-devel] IP address bug in RemoteSyslogAppender

[Chris C. <Chr...@hi...>]

Hello all,

=20

I have experienced a bug using the RemoteSyslogAppender running on Win32
where it would improperly store ip addresses. On line #111 (version
.3.5rc3), _ipAddr =3D *(pent->h_addr); seems to only store the first two
bytes of the ip address.

By changing that line to the following line:

memcpy(&_ipAddr, pent->h_addr, pent->h_length);

I was able to get the correct behavior.

Please let me know if you need more information on duplicating this
behavior or any assistance in applying this bugfix.
