Detailed Description

Wrapper for sockaddr structure.

This is a wrapper for sockaddr structure, providing functions that go between host and network order.

All parameters and returned values are in host order.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ inaddr() [1/2]

mlib::inaddr::inaddr	(	unsigned long	host = INADDR_ANY,
		unsigned short	port = 0 )

explicit

Fill sockaddr structure with host number and port.

Parameters are in HOST order

◆ inaddr() [2/2]

mlib::inaddr::inaddr	(	const std::string &	hostname,
		const std::string &	service,
		const std::string &	proto = std::string () )

Fill sockaddr structure after resolving host and service names.

Parameters

hostname	host name or IP address
service	well-known service or port number
proto	service protocol

Member Function Documentation

◆ port()

erc mlib::inaddr::port	(	const std::string &	service,
		const std::string &	proto = std::string () )

set port number based on well-known service ports

Parameters

service	service name
proto	protocol name

The service parameter can be either one of the well-known service names or a numeric port value. If it is a numeric value, the function converts it to a port number using the strtoul function.
