Class `std.socket.Internet6Address`

Encapsulates an IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) socket address.


						
				class Internet6Address
				
  : Address
				;

Consider using getAddress, parseAddress and Address methods instead of using this class directly.

Constructors

Name	Description
`this` (addr, service)	Construct a new `Internet6Address`.
`this` (addr, port)	Construct a new `Internet6Address`.
`this` (addr, port)	Construct a new `Internet6Address`.
`this` (addr)	Construct a new `Internet6Address`.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
`addr`[get]	`ubyte[16]`	Returns the IPv6 address.
`ADDR_ANY`[get]	`const(ubyte[16])`	Any IPv6 host address.
`port`[get]	`ushort`	Returns the IPv6 port number.
`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
`parse` (addr)	Parse an IPv6 host address string as described in RFC 2373, and return the address.
`factory` (classname)	Create instance of class specified by the fully qualified name classname. The class must either have no constructors or have a default constructor.
`opCmp` (o)	Compare with another Object obj.
`opEquals` (o)	Test whether `this` is equal to `o`. The default implementation only compares by identity (using the `is` operator). Generally, overrides and overloads for `opEquals` should attempt to compare objects by their contents. A class will most likely want to add an overload that takes your specific type as the argument and does the content comparison. Then you can override this and forward it to your specific typed overload with a cast. Remember to check for `null` on the typed overload.
`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` ()	Human readable string representing this address.
`toString` ()	Convert Object to a human readable string.
