[lwip-users] Using "localhost" in calls of getaddrinfo and inet_ntop

[Thomas Nittel]

I like to use a software package on top of lwIP. This software package calls 
getaddrinfo("localhost", servname, hints, res) and 
inet_ntop(af,src,"localhost",size). As far as I conceived the lwIP source code 
lwIP doesn't know what to do with "localhost". What can be done to make the 
above function calls with "localhost" succeed?
