Efl.Net.Ip_Address (class)

An Internet Protocol (IP) Address.

This class is a set of helpers to translate to and from address strings used in Efl.Net. For IP they take the following formats:

- IPv4 complete: 127.0.0.1:1234 - IPv4 no port: 127.0.0.1 - IPv6 complete: [::1]:1234 - IPv6 no port: [::1] - IPv6 no braces (implies no port): ::1

However in other libraries you can use the address numbers or even a 'struct sockaddr' handle. Translating by yourself may be too much work. To convert to a string just create an instance with Efl.Net.Ip_Address.create or Efl.Net.Ip_Address.create_sockaddr and then query Efl.Net.Ip_Address.string. To convert from numeric string to sockaddr, create an instance with Efl.Net.Ip_Address.parse and then query Efl.Net.Ip_Address.sockaddr.

To resolve a host and port name to numbers use Efl.Net.Ip_Address.resolve, this will asynchronously resolve and return the results in a promise.

The result of Efl.Net.Ip_Address.string can be passed to Efl.Net.Dialer.dial and Efl.Net.Server.serve
