Class Details¶

class Gio.InetAddressMask(**kwargs)¶

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

Gio.InetAddressMask 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. Eg, “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.
