SrvTarget

A single target host/port that a network service is running on.

SRV (service) records are used by some network protocols to provide service-specific aliasing and load-balancing. For example, XMPP (Jabber) uses SRV records to locate the XMPP server for a domain; rather than connecting directly to ‘example.com’ or assuming a specific server hostname like ‘xmpp.example.com’, an XMPP client would look up the xmpp-client SRV record for ‘example.com’, and then connect to whatever host was pointed to by that record.

You can use gio.resolver.Resolver.lookupService or gio.resolver.Resolver.lookupServiceAsync to find the gio.srv_target.SrvTargets for a given service. However, if you are simply planning to connect to the remote service, you can use gio.network_service.NetworkService’s gio.socket_connectable.SocketConnectable interface and not need to worry about gio.srv_target.SrvTarget at all.

class SrvTarget : Boxed {

this(string hostname, ushort port, ushort priority, ushort weight);

gio.srv_target.SrvTarget copy();

string getHostname();

ushort getPort();

ushort getPriority();

ushort getWeight();

}

Constructors

this this(string hostname, ushort port, ushort priority, ushort weight): Creates a new #GSrvTarget with the given parameters.

Functions

copy gio.srv_target.SrvTarget copy(): Copies target
getHostname string getHostname(): Gets target's hostname (in ASCII form; if you are going to present this to the user, you should use glib.global.hostnameIsAsciiEncoded to check if it contains encoded Unicode segments, and use glib.global.hostnameToUnicode to convert it if it does.)
getPort ushort getPort(): Gets target's port
getPriority ushort getPriority(): Gets target's priority. You should not need to look at this; #GResolver already sorts the targets according to the algorithm in RFC 2782.
getWeight ushort getWeight(): Gets target's weight. You should not need to look at this; #GResolver already sorts the targets according to the algorithm in RFC 2782.
