Update to new cares_wrap.getaddrinfo() interface. #200
Conversation
There was a problem hiding this comment.
If you check commit nodejs/node@e007f66, you will see that this function now actually requires 5 arguments, so the correct syntax would be cares.getaddrinfo(req, host, family, 0, false).
As of node.js v8.6.0, the method takes a fifth argument that is a boolean. `false` is as of this time the default value. This is a quick fix. node_mdns really should not be depending on node.js internals like this because it inevitably breaks. Fixes: #199 Refs: nodejs/node#14731

Hello, I have made an update to node on 8.7.0 I get the following error message. The same message I have already received with 8.6.0 and 8.5.0. The last working version is 8.4.0 without this error. I have had hope that it was fixed in the 8.7.0?

@Nastra888 Node 8.5+ just changed how this call functions. Node was never broken, node_mdns is. Either use the change from this PR or downgrade to Node 8.4 or lower until this PR is committed. |

I do not quite understand what you mean with PR? The error is not with node, if I understand you correctly with node mdns? |

@Nastra888 in your project, open |

Thank You for your quick answer. I have change line 117 but I get the same error message. Do you have a other idea ?

Thanks for the patch, @bnoordhuis. I just published it as v2.3.4.
Absolutely. The linux getaddr stuff is such a sore point. Constantly (semi-) broken and just a mess. Apologies to everyone. This totally slipped my mind. |

@agnat I still get this error displayed, do you have an idea why?

Nope, no clue. Sorry. |

I don't know what node.js versions node_mdns ostensibly supports (I saw a node-waf script in there!) but I'd rip out this code altogether and use the public API.
