ping_construct - Constructor for the liboping class
SYNOPSIS
#include <oping.h>
pingobj_t *ping_construct (void);

DESCRIPTION
The ping_construct constructor allocates the memory necessary for a
liboping object, initializes that memory and returns a pointer to it.
The ping_destroy iterates over all hosts associated with the liboping
object obj, closes the sockets, removes the hosts and frees obj’s
memory.
RETURN VALUE
The ping_construct constructor returns a pointer to the allocated
memory or NULL if no memory could be allocated.
