I copied the ProcessPing routine over from one of the examples and use it with my little console command interpreter. It works ok most of the time, but for some addresses I get this strange crash. abc.com resolves to 99.84.233.15, so it's not the ping itself causing the crash but probably something to do with the name lookup of abc.com. What's the best way to troubleshoot this?

Code: Select all

ping 8.8.8.8

Pinging : 8.8.8.8
 Response Took 0 ticks
ping nbc.com

Pinging : 0:7a0c:7a00:7a00::
 Response Took -2 ticks
ping 99.84.233.15

Pinging : 99.84.233.15
 Response Took 1 ticks
ping abc.com

How are you converting nbc.com to an IPADDR?
You need to use a DNS lookup AsciiToIp is not going to work for a name...

I hadn't really really looked at the ProcessPing() function... I assumed it was doing a DNS lookup since things like 'google.com' seemed to be doing something, but I see that's not the case. I guess AsciiToIp works with some strings but not others.

Should not crash in any case.....

AsciiToIp requires a string representation of an IP address to work, such as "10.1.1.1". If you passed it a name like "google.com" and somehow got a ping back, it would not be from google.com, but the string "google.com" must somehow come back as an IP address of some sort.
