Description

The SFXInetAddress class provides the Resolve function of converting a domain into an IP address. To manage a port number, use the SFXSocketAddress class.

How to use the SFXInetAddress class

Set a domain in the constructor or SFXInetAddress::Set function.
Resolve the domain using the SFXInetAddress::Resolve function, and register a callback function as an argument of this function.
The registered callback function will be called after notified of the address resolution.

Example 475. Method to resolve a domain

class MyClass {
    SFXInetAddress _address;
    Void Function(Void);
    CALLBACK_DECLARE_SFXINETADDRESS(ResolveCallback)
};

Void MyClass::Function(Void)
{
    SFCError error;

    // set domain
    if ((error = _address.Set("http://www.example.com/test"); == SFERR_NO_ERROR) {
        // resolve domain( result will be notified to ResolveCallback function )
        error = _address.Resolve(CALLBACK_FUNCTION(ResolveCallback));
    }
    if (error != SFERR_NO_ERROR) {
        // handle error since ResolveCallback function will not be called
    }
    
}

// callback function called after notified of the address resolution
CALLBACK_IMPLEMENT_SFXINETADDRESS(MyClass, ResolveCallback, error)
{
     SInt16 i;

     // get result
     TRACE("%s",_address.Get().GetCString());  // domain
     
      // repeat number of IP addresses
     for(i = 0 ; i < _address.GetCount() ; i++){
         // get result
         TRACE("%s",_address.GetIP(i).GetCString());  // IP address
     }
    
}

SFXInetAddress::SFXInetAddress

Constructor of SFXInetAddress class.

[ public, explicit ]
SFXInetAddress(Void);

[ public ]
SFXInetAddress(
    SFXInetAddressConstRef param   // source SFXInetAddress
);

[ public, explicit ]
SFXInetAddress(
    SFXAnsiStringConstRef param   // domain character string
);

[ public, explicit ]
SFXInetAddress(
    INAddr inaddr   // IP Address
);

Description

If the argument is of the SFXAnsiString::Set function, the domain string takes the following format:

<protocol> :// <account>  @ <domain>  : <port>  / <path>

Only the <domain> part is taken out and set when the string with this format(it may be OK to lack some parts of the string) is given.

The IP address is automatically gotten by using the SFXInetAddress::AsINAddr function if the <domain> part is the IP address(i.e. string "nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn" ).

SFXInetAddress::Resolve

Resolve domain name.

[ public ]
SFCError Resolve(
    CallbackSPP spp     // callback function
    VoidPtr reference   // data passed to callback function

If the domain is not found : SFERR_INVALID_STATE
If failed to create the instance of SFBNetMgr class : SFERR_FAILED

Description

The callback function specified with the argument is called after domain name is resolved. The callback function will not be called when an error occurs in the SFXInetAddress::Resolve function.

Example

class MyClass {
    SFXInetAddress _address;
    Void Function(Void);
    CALLBACK_DECLARE_SFXINETADDRESS(ResolveCallback);
};

Void MyClass::Function(Void)
{
    SFCError error;

    // set domain
    if ((error = _address.Set("http://www.example.com/test"); == SFERR_NO_ERROR) {
        // resolve domain( result will be notified to ResolveCallback function )
        error = _address.Resolve(CALLBACK_FUNCTION(ResolveCallback));
    }
    if (error != SFERR_NO_ERROR) {
        // handle error since ResolveCallback function will not be called
    }
    
}

// callback function called after notified of the address resolution
CALLBACK_IMPLEMENT_SFXINETADDRESS(MyClass, ResolveCallback, error)
{
    SFXAnsiString ip;

Set the IP address and domain.

[ public ]
SFCError Set(
    SFXInetAddressConstRef param   // source SFXInetAddress
);

[ public ]
SFCError Set(
    SFXAnsiStringConstRef param   // domain character string
);

[ public ]
SFCError Set(
    INAddr inaddr   // IP Address
);

Return value

Success : SFERR_NO_ERROR
If no IP address is specified : SFERR_INVALID_PARAM
If the IP address cannot be converted into the INAddr format : SFERR_FAILED
If insufficient memory : SFERR_NO_MEMORY

Description

The domain string has the following format.

<protocol> :// <account>  @ <domain>  : <port> / <path>

Only the <domain> part is taken out and set when the string with this format(it may be OK to lack some parts of the string) is given.

The IP address is automatically gotten by using the SFXInetAddress::AsINAddr function if the <domain> part is the IP address(i.e. string "nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn" ).

The address resolution will be canceled if the SFXInetAddress::Set function is called while resolving.

Example

SFXInetAddress address;
address.Set("http://www.example.com:80/test");
address.Get(); // "www.example.com"

SFXInetAddress address;
address.Set("127.0.0.1/test");
