C++的UDP连接解析域名地址错误

背景

使用c++开发一个udp连接功能的脚本，可以接收发送数据，而且地址是经过内网穿透到外网的

经过

通常发送数据给目标地址，需要把目的地址结构化，要么使用inet_addr解析ip地址，要么使用inet_pton

sockaddr_in target_addr{};
target_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
target_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("192.168.x.xxx");
target_addr.sin_port = htons(TARGET_PORT);

sockaddr_in target_addr{};
target_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
if (inet_pton(AF_INET, "192.168.x.xxx", &target_addr.sin_addr) <= 0) {std::cerr << "Invalid target address" << std::endl;close(server_socket);close(client_socket);return 1;}
target_addr.sin_port = htons(TARGET_PORT);

正常的ip地址是可以的，但是如果是个域名（例如server.natappfree.cc），就会报错
Failed to send data
Invalid target address

原因

inet_pton 函数主要用于将点分十进制的 IPv4 地址或 IPv6 地址字符串转换为二进制形式，它只能处理 IP 地址，不能直接处理域名（如 server.natappfree.cc）。当你传入域名时，它会因为无法识别该字符串为有效的 IP 地址格式而报错 Invalid target address。
要解决这个问题，
你需要使用 DNS 解析将域名转换为对应的 IP 地址。
在 C++ 中，可以使用 getaddrinfo 函数来完成这个任务
（如果你用python，是可以直接写域名的）
