IPSocket

IPSocket is the super class of TCPSocket and UDPSocket.

Public Class Methods

getaddress(host) => ipaddress click to toggle source

Lookups the IP address of host.

require 'socket'

IPSocket.getaddress("localhost")     #=> "127.0.0.1"
IPSocket.getaddress("ip6-localhost") #=> "::1"
 
               static VALUE
ip_s_getaddress(VALUE obj, VALUE host)
{
    union_sockaddr addr;
    struct rb_addrinfo *res = rsock_addrinfo(host, Qnil, AF_UNSPEC, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
    socklen_t len = res->ai->ai_addrlen;

    /* just take the first one */
    memcpy(&addr, res->ai->ai_addr, len);
    rb_freeaddrinfo(res);

    return rsock_make_ipaddr(&addr.addr, len);
}
            

Public Instance Methods

addr([reverse_lookup]) => [address_family, port, hostname, numeric_address] click to toggle source

Returns the local address as an array which contains address_family, port, hostname and numeric_address.

If reverse_lookup is true or :hostname, hostname is obtained from numeric_address using reverse lookup. Or if it is false, or :numeric, hostname is the same as numeric_address. Or if it is nil or omitted, obeys to ipsocket.do_not_reverse_lookup. See Socket.getaddrinfo also.

inspect → string click to toggle source

Return a string describing this IPSocket object.

{
    VALUE str = rb_call_super(0, 0);

    }
    return str;
}
            
peeraddr([reverse_lookup]) => [address_family, port, hostname, numeric_address] click to toggle source

Returns the remote address as an array which contains address_family, port, hostname and numeric_address. It is defined for connection oriented socket such as TCPSocket.

If reverse_lookup is true or :hostname, hostname is obtained from numeric_address using reverse lookup. Or if it is false, or :numeric, hostname is the same as numeric_address. Or if it is nil or omitted, obeys to ipsocket.do_not_reverse_lookup. See Socket.getaddrinfo also.

}
            
recvfrom(maxlen) => [mesg, ipaddr] click to toggle source
recvfrom(maxlen, flags) => [mesg, ipaddr]

Receives a message and return the message as a string and an address which the message come from.

maxlen is the maximum number of bytes to receive.

flags should be a bitwise OR of Socket::MSG_* constants.

ipaddr is the same as IPSocket#{peeraddr,addr}.
