~~Title: Efl.Net.Session~~
====== Efl.Net.Session (class) ======

===== Description =====

%%Used by application to request network connectivity.%%

%%This API is targeted at applications that need access to the network, specifying the allowed bearer technologies to connect to the internet, as well as whether local networking is enough or validated internet access is required.%%

%%Some platforms may not implement the backend for this class. In this cases the system will report always %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:property:state|Efl.Net.Session.state]]%% "online" (%%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session_state|Efl.Net.Session_State.online]]%%) and other properties will be %%''NULL''%%, such as %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:property:network_name|Efl.Net.Session.network_name]]%%, %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:property:interface|Efl.Net.Session.interface]]%%, %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:property:ipv4|Efl.Net.Session.ipv4]]%% and %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:property:ipv6|Efl.Net.Session.ipv6]]%%; as well as %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:property:technology|Efl.Net.Session.technology]]%% is set to %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session_technology|Efl.Net.Session_Technology.unknown]]%%. As such if you need to detect for an actual backend, check if the state is online but those properties are %%''NULL''%% or technology is unknown.%%

<note>
%%the %%[[:develop:api:efl:net:session:method:connect|Efl.Net.Session.connect]]%% method is subject to backend policy. For instance, ConnMan uses https://github.com/aldebaran/connman/blob/master/doc/session-policy-format.txt%%
