Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PIPSocket::Address::Address (  ) 

Create an IPv4 address with the default address: 127.0.0.1 (loopback).

PIPSocket::Address::Address ( const PString dotNotation  ) 

Create an IP address from string notation. eg dot notation x.x.x.x. for IPv4, or colon notation x:x:x::xxx for IPv6

PIPSocket::Address::Address ( PINDEX  len,
const BYTE *  bytes 
)

Create an IPv4 or IPv6 address from 4 or 16 byte values.

PIPSocket::Address::Address ( BYTE  b1,
BYTE  b2,
BYTE  b3,
BYTE  b4 
)

Create an IP address from four byte values.

PIPSocket::Address::Address ( DWORD  dw  ) 

Create an IPv4 address from a four byte value in network byte order.

PIPSocket::Address::Address ( const in_addr &  addr  ) 

Create an IPv4 address from an in_addr structure.

PIPSocket::Address::Address ( const int  ai_family,
const int  ai_addrlen,
struct sockaddr *  ai_addr 
)

Create an IP (v4 or v6) address from a sockaddr (sockaddr_in, sockaddr_in6 or sockaddr_in6_old) structure


Member Function Documentation

Address& PIPSocket::Address::operator= ( const in_addr &  addr  ) 

Copy an address from another IP v4 address.
