Question Related to the Code

[robertojrojas]

I've been studying this code for a few days to learn more about network programming. I've learned some good things, Thanks!

My question is
I've seen this use of memset in other code and sample, but I'm curious as to why cast the struct to (char *)
instead of just memset(&serv_addr, 0, sa_size)

ntttcp-for-linux/src/udpstream.c

Line 44 in 14705f1

memset((char*)&serv_addr, 0, sa_size);

Thanks in advance,

• Roberto
