Detailed Description
Retrieve informations about network interfaces.
This class can be used to obtain informations such as the name or the IP address of a network interface. It is used by the ServerSocket class to obtain a "struct sockaddr_in" needed to create a server socket.
Constructor & Destructor Documentation
◆ NetInterface() [1/2]
| mcs::NetInterface::NetInterface | ( | string | name = "lo" | ) |
Constructor.
This constructor create a NetInterface objects linked to the interface named in the first parameter, so that any call to methods will return informations about this interface. If you want to know the names of the interfaces present in the system you should create the object without any parameter (deafult value for name is "lo"), then call the name() method with an index going from 0 to count().
- Parameters
-
name Name of the interface, default is "lo" for the localhost interface (127.0.0.1).
◆ ~NetInterface()
◆ NetInterface() [2/2]
| mcs::NetInterface::NetInterface | ( | const NetInterface & | ) |
Declared to avoid using of default copy constructor.
- Warning
- This constructor is declared but not implemented. If you try to use it you will get a compilation error.

◆ count()

◆ index()
| unsigned int mcs::NetInterface::index | ( | ) |
◆ ipaddress()
| string mcs::NetInterface::ipaddress | ( | int | index = -1 | ) |
Return the IP address of an interface.
If no argument is given will return the address of the actual interface, otherwise will return the address of the interface with the index equal to the argument. Note that the index must be less then count().
- Parameters
-
index Interface index, default is -1 for actual interface.
◆ name()
| string mcs::NetInterface::name | ( | int | index = -1 | ) |
Return the name of an interface.
If no argument is given will return the name of the actual interface, otherwise will return the name of the interface with the index equal to the argument. Note that the index must be less then count().
- Parameters
-
index Interface index, default is -1 for actual interface.
◆ operator=()
| NetInterface& mcs::NetInterface::operator= | ( | const NetInterface & | ) |
Declared to avoid using of default assignment operator.
- Warning
- This operator is declared but not implemented. If you try to use
