## Function Documentation

### globus\_result\_t globus\_libc\_contact\_string\_to\_ints (const char \* contact\_string, int \* host, int \* count, unsigned short \* port)

convert a numeric contact string to an array of ints

(port is optional and may be NULL. 0 will be passed back if no port is found) host needs to have room for at least 16 ints count will be passed back. 4 for ipv4, 16 for ipv6

### char \* globus\_libc\_join (const char \*\* array, int count)

create a new string from all of the strings in array
