[133:14] static extends: object

Generated metadata helpers for NetworkAddress class surfaces.

Methods

• properties ()

  Returns property metadata for NetworkAddress.

  • @r A list.

class: NetworkAddress

[17:7] extends: object

GNetworkAddress provides an easy way to resolve a hostname and then attempt to connect to that host, handling the possibility of multiple IP addresses and multiple address families. The enumeration results of resolved addresses may be cached as long as this object is kept alive which may have unexpected results if alive for too long. See [iface@Gio.SocketConnectable] for an example of using the connectable interface.

  • @r The wrapped NativeHandle.

• isNull ()

  Returns true when the wrapped handle is null.

  • @r A bool.

• describe ()

  Returns a small string for debugging generated wrappers.

  • @r A string.

• asObject ()

  Wraps this handle as Object.

  • @r A Object object.

• asSocketConnectable ()

  Wraps this handle as SocketConnectable.

  • @r A SocketConnectable object.
