Class Details¶

class Gio.InetAddressMask(**kwargs)¶

Bases:: GObject.Object, Gio.Initable
Abstract:: No
Structure:: Gio.InetAddressMaskClass

GInetAddressMask represents a range of IPv4 or IPv6 addresses described by a base address and a length indicating how many bits of the base address are relevant for matching purposes. These are often given in string form. For example, 10.0.0.0/8, or fe80::/10.

New in version 2.32.

classmethod new(addr, length)[source]¶

Parameters:

addr (Gio.InetAddress) – a Gio.InetAddress
length (int) – number of bits of addr to use

Raises:

GLib.Error

Returns:

a new Gio.InetAddressMask, or None on error

Return type:

Gio.InetAddressMask

Creates a new Gio.InetAddressMask representing all addresses whose first length bits match addr.

New in version 2.32.

classmethod new_from_string(mask_string)[source]¶

Parameters:: mask_string (str) – an IP address or address/length string
Raises:: GLib.Error
Returns:: a new Gio.InetAddressMask corresponding to string, or None on error.
Return type:: Gio.InetAddressMask

Parses mask_string as an IP address and (optional) length, and creates a new Gio.InetAddressMask. The length, if present, is delimited by a “/”. If it is not present, then the length is assumed to be the full length of the address.

New in version 2.32.

equal(mask2)[source]¶

Parameters:: mask2 (Gio.InetAddressMask) – another Gio.InetAddressMask
Returns:: whether self and mask2 are the same mask
Return type:: bool

Tests if self and mask2 are the same mask.

New in version 2.32.

get_address()[source]¶

Returns:: self's base address
Return type:: Gio.InetAddress

Gets self's base address

New in version 2.32.

get_family()[source]¶

Returns:: the Gio.SocketFamily of self's address
Return type:: Gio.SocketFamily

Gets the Gio.SocketFamily of self's address

New in version 2.32.

get_length()[source]¶

Returns:: self's length
Return type:: int

Gets self's length

New in version 2.32.

matches(address)[source]¶

Parameters:: address (Gio.InetAddress) – a Gio.InetAddress
Returns:: whether address falls within the range described by self.
Return type:: bool

Tests if address falls within the range described by self.

New in version 2.32.

to_string()[source]¶

Returns:: a string corresponding to self.
Return type:: str

Converts self back to its corresponding string form.

New in version 2.32.
