Member Function Documentation

struct in_addr ost::IPV4Cidr::getBroadcast (  void   )  const

Compute the broadcast address associated with this cidr. Returns: system binary coded network address.

unsigned ost::IPV4Cidr::getMask (  const char *  cp  )  [protected]

struct in_addr ost::IPV4Cidr::getNetmask (  void   )  const [inline]

Get network mask associated with this cidr. Returns: system binary coded network mask.

struct in_addr ost::IPV4Cidr::getNetwork (  void   )  const [inline]

Get network address associated with this cidr. Returns: system binary coded address.

bool ost::IPV4Cidr::isMember (  struct in_addr &  inaddr  )

See if a low level address object is a member of this cidr's net. Parameters: inaddr  object to test. Returns: true if member of cidr.

bool ost::IPV4Cidr::isMember (  struct sockaddr *  saddr  )

See if a socket address is a member of this cidr's network. Parameters: saddr  pointer to test. Returns: true if member of cidr.

void ost::IPV4Cidr::set (  const char *  cidr  )

Set the cidr from a full or partial hostname, or from an address/mask, or a host/bits specification. Parameters: cidr  string to use.
