Respectable Cygwin developers: I would have to bother you for the specification of the AF_UNIX support in Cygwin. Despite the claim in the documentation that AF_UNIX in Cygwin is implemented by AF_INET( newlib-cygwin - newlib and cygwin ), I have also noticed that the part of the documentation was added in 2013 and have remained unchanged since then, while it was not until 2017 that Windows started to support AF_UNIX natively( AF_UNIX comes to Windows - Windows Command Line ). Therefore, may I inquiry that whether Cygwin's socket API( Chapter 1. Compatibility ) is able to use the native AF_UNIX in Windows currently despite it was not informed by the document? -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
