Class `std.socket.UnixAddress`

UnixAddress encapsulates an address for a Unix domain socket (AF_UNIX), i.e. a socket bound to a path name in the file system. Available only on supported systems.


						
				class UnixAddress
				
  : Address
				;
						
						
				class UnixAddress
				
  : Address
				;

Linux also supports an abstract address namespace, in which addresses are independent of the file system. A socket address is abstract iff path starts with a null byte ('\0'). Null bytes in other positions of an abstract address are allowed and have no special meaning.

Constructors

Name	Description
`this`	Construct a new `UnixAddress` from the specified path.
`this`	Construct a new `UnixAddress`.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
`path`[get]	`string`	Get the underlying path.
`addressFamily`[get]	`AddressFamily`	Family of this address.
`name`[get]	`core.sys.posix.sys.socket.sockaddr*`	Returns pointer to underlying `sockaddr` structure.
`nameLen`[get]	`uint`	Returns actual size of underlying `sockaddr` structure.

Methods

Name	Description
`toString`	Get the underlying path.
`factory`	Create instance of class specified by the fully qualified name classname. The class must either have no constructors or have a default constructor.
`opCmp`	Compare with another Object obj.
`opEquals`	Test whether `this` is equal to `o`. The default implementation only compares by identity (using the `is` operator). Generally, overrides for `opEquals` should attempt to compare objects by their contents.
`toAddrString`	Attempts to retrieve the host address as a human-readable string.
`toHash`	Compute hash function for Object.
`toHostNameString`	Attempts to retrieve the host name as a fully qualified domain name.
`toPortString`	Attempts to retrieve the numeric port number as a string.
`toServiceNameString`	Attempts to retrieve the service name as a string.
`toString`	Convert Object to a human readable string.

Constructors

Name	Description
`this`	Construct a new `UnixAddress` from the specified path.
`this`	Construct a new `UnixAddress`.

Properties

`name`[get]	`core.sys.posix.sys.socket.sockaddr*`	Returns pointer to underlying `sockaddr` structure.
`nameLen`[get]	`uint`	Returns actual size of underlying `sockaddr` structure.

auto addr = new UnixAddress("/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket");
auto abstractAddr = new UnixAddress("\0/tmp/dbus-OtHLWmCLPR");
