b2bits::net::Endpoint Struct Reference

Generic network endpoint (IP address and port). More...

Detailed Description

Generic network endpoint (IP address and port).

Represents a network endpoint consisting of an IP address and port number. Used for both TCP and UDP connections to specify remote server addresses.

The endpoint supports:

• Validity checking (non-empty IP and non-zero port)
• Equality comparison
• IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (as strings)

Note

Default constructed endpoint is invalid (empty IP, port = 0)

Example:

Endpoint server{"192.168.1.100", 8080};
 
if (server) {  // Check validity
    std::cout << "Connecting to " << server.ip_ 
              << ":" << server.port_ << std::endl;
}
 
Endpoint other{"192.168.1.100", 8080};
if (server == other) {
    std::cout << "Same endpoint" << std::endl;
}

Member Function Documentation

operator bool()

b2bits::net::Endpoint::operator bool ( ) const

inlineexplicit

Check if endpoint is valid.

An endpoint is considered valid if it has a non-empty IP address and a non-zero port number.

Returns

true if endpoint is valid (has IP and port), false otherwise

References ip_, and port_.

operator!=()

bool b2bits::net::Endpoint::operator!= ( const Endpoint & rhs ) const

inline

Inequality comparison operator.

Parameters

rhs	Endpoint to compare with

Returns

true if IP or port differ, false otherwise

operator==()

bool b2bits::net::Endpoint::operator== ( const Endpoint & rhs ) const

inline

Equality comparison operator.

Two endpoints are equal if both their IP addresses and ports match.

Parameters

rhs	Endpoint to compare with

Returns

true if IP and port are identical, false otherwise

References ip_, and port_.
