Note The gethostbyname function has been deprecated by the introduction of the getaddrinfo function. Developers creating Windows Sockets 2 applications are urged to use the getaddrinfo function instead of gethostbyname.

Returns a single IPv4 address for a given hostname. This function is discouraged for new development because it is limited to IPv4 addresses.
