I need to pack some socket info (family, type, port, address, etc) into a CFDictionary so that I can pass it to my helper tool.

I want to use a CFSocketSignature to hold this data but I notice the Apple docs say CFSocketSignature can only hold a sockaddr_in and not a sockaddr_in6 structure.

Where do they say that? CFSocketSignature has an address, which is a CFDataRef and should be able to hold any kind of sockaddr.

However, you cannot put a CFSocketSignature into a CFDictionary, because it is a struct and not a CFType. You can, however, place the address CFDataRef into a CFDictionary, and it may be sufficient for your needs.
