## Detailed Description

wxIPaddress is an abstract base class for all internet protocol address objects.

Currently, only wxIPV4address is implemented. An experimental implementation for IPV6, wxIPV6address, is being developed.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ AnyAddress()

bool wxIPaddress::AnyAddress | ( |  | ) |

Internally, this is the same as setting the IP address to INADDR_ANY.

On IPV4 implementations, 0.0.0.0

On IPV6 implementations, ::

Returns
  true on success, false if something went wrong.

## ◆ BroadcastAddress()

virtual bool wxIPaddress::BroadcastAddress | ( |  | ) |
| pure virtual

Internally, this is the same as setting the IP address to INADDR_BROADCAST.

On IPV4 implementations, 255.255.255.255

Returns
  true on success, false if something went wrong.

## ◆ Hostname() [1/2]

wxString wxIPaddress::Hostname | ( |  | ) | const

Returns the hostname which matches the IP address.

## ◆ Hostname() [2/2]

bool wxIPaddress::Hostname | ( | const wxString & | hostname | ) |

Set the address to hostname, which can be a host name or an IP-style address in a format dependent on implementation.

Returns
  true on success, false if something goes wrong (invalid hostname or invalid IP address).

## ◆ IPAddress()

virtual wxString wxIPaddress::IPAddress | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtual

Returns a wxString containing the IP address.

Implemented in wxIPV4address.

## ◆ IsLocalHost()

virtual bool wxIPaddress::IsLocalHost | ( |  | ) | const
