ipv6 when embedding mongoose

[rbl...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I'm using mongoose following the embeded mongoose example from https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose/blob/master/docs/Embed.md
I'm working on Linux.

Here the code excerpt of the main function:
  struct mg_server *server = mg_create_server(NULL, event_handler);
  mg_set_option(server, "document_root", ".");      // Serve current directory
  mg_set_option(server, "listening_port", "8080");  // Open port 8080
  for (;;) {
    mg_poll_server(server, 1000);   // Infinite loop, Ctrl-C to stop
  }
  mg_destroy_server(&server);

I need to have the server listen in IPV6. I've read about the -DUSE_IPV6 flag, but it doesn't seem to work for my case.
I've also read about using net_skeleton, but I don't seem to have it locally nor to find its definitive online location (found fossa instead).

What is the correct way to make server listen to IPV6?

Thanks

Looking at the code in mongoose.c, I saw that when you set a port to listen to, it will only work with ipv4.
Changing this part to use ipv6 made the trick for me.

There is -DNS_ENABLE_IPV6 , documented at https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose/blob/master/docs/Embed.md
