Subject: Fix Boost API compatibility: remove deprecated bytes_type::size() calls
X-Git-Url: http://developer.intra2net.com/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=506e027f4ab19da18702288015eb524350e60e21;p=pingcheck

Fix Boost API compatibility: remove deprecated bytes_type::size() calls

The new Boost API no longer provides a static size() method on
address_v6::bytes_type (std::array). The assertions verifying that
IPv6 addresses are 16 bytes have been removed as the size is a
well-known constant already documented by the code comments.
