43#
44# Captures a socket address or address range in the Internet namespace.

115#
116# Captures the address of a socket, which could also be a named file descriptor
117#
118# Note: This type is deprecated in favor of SocketAddress.  The
119#       difference between SocketAddressLegacy and SocketAddress is that the
120#       latter is a flat union rather than a simple union. Flat is nicer
121#       because it avoids nesting on the wire, i.e. that form has fewer {}.
