However for some reason in your case $gaiErr contains a dot and an extra space at the end of the string compared to $extErr Yes, I noticed that, too ... and wondered ... I think you should create an issue of this. If the problem turns out to be in 'cpan/Socket' (in the perl source) you would then have to file a bug report against the Socket distro, but I'm guessing that the problem lies in some windows-specific section of the perl source that is outside of 'cpan/Socket' - more likely in the 'win32' folder of the perl source. Of course, you might yet receive some helpful responses here, explaining the nature of the problem. Cheers, Rob	[reply]

I think you should create an issue of this. Actually I did create an issue regarding this, just a few hours after I created my initial post here on PM, because I realized it was likely an actual bug. I created it in the Socket module bug tracker because I though the related code was in the xs code of this module.	[reply]

I created it in the Socket module bug tracker because I thought the related code was in the xs code of this module. Cool .. that's a good place to start. However, it's a bit tricky. That "related code" that you've indicated is inside an "`#ifdef HAS_GETADDRINFO`" block, and I don't know if "`HAS_GETADDRINFO`" is defined for your build of perl. On my 64-bit StrawberryPerl-5.32.1, I have: `C:\> perl -V:d_getaddrinfo d_getaddrinfo='undef';` [download] Maybe "`HAS_GETADDRINFO`" gets defined somehow anyway, despite that Config setting ??

Hi. grep says no. https://perl5.git.perl.org/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/ws2tcpip/nf-ws2tcpip-getaddrinfo so many results here its worth checking if all these other versions work https://metacpan.org/search?p=1&q=getaddrinfo&size=500 for ppsimple https://metacpan.org/pod/Win32::Ldd grep.cpan.me is gone, these arent replacements- ick site:metacpan.org getaddrinfo site:metacpan.org getaddrinfo [href://]	[reply]
