Properties:

• public void* bytes { get; construct; }
  The raw address data.
• public SocketFamily family { get; construct; }
  The address family (IPv4 or IPv6).
• public bool is_any { get; }
  Whether this is the "any" address for its family.
• public bool is_link_local { get; }
  Whether this is a link-local address.
• public bool is_loopback { get; }
  Whether this is the loopback address for its family.
• public bool is_mc_global { get; }
  Whether this is a global multicast address.
• public bool is_mc_link_local { get; }
  Whether this is a link-local multicast address.
• public bool is_mc_node_local { get; }
  Whether this is a node-local multicast address.
• public bool is_mc_org_local { get; }
  Whether this is an organization-local multicast address.
• public bool is_mc_site_local { get; }
  Whether this is a site-local multicast address.
• public bool is_multicast { get; }
  Whether this is a multicast address.
• public bool is_site_local { get; }
  Whether this is a site-local address.

Creation methods:

• protected InetAddress ()
• public InetAddress.any (SocketFamily family)
  Creates a InetAddress for the "any" address (unassigned/"don't care") for family.
• public InetAddress.from_bytes (uint8[] bytes, SocketFamily family)
  Creates a new InetAddress from the given family and bytes.
• public InetAddress.from_string (string string)
  Parses string as an IP address and creates a new InetAddress.
• public InetAddress.loopback (SocketFamily family)
  Creates a InetAddress for the loopback address for family.

Methods:

• public bool equal (InetAddress other_address)
  Checks if two InetAddress instances are equal, e.
• public SocketFamily get_family ()
  Gets this's family
• public bool get_is_any ()
  Tests whether this is the "any" address for its family.
• public bool get_is_link_local ()
  Tests whether this is a link-local address (that is, if it identifies a host on a local network that is not connected to the Internet).
• public bool get_is_loopback ()
  Tests whether this is the loopback address for its family.
• public bool get_is_mc_global ()
  Tests whether this is a global multicast address.
• public bool get_is_mc_link_local ()
  Tests whether this is a link-local multicast address.
• public bool get_is_mc_node_local ()
  Tests whether this is a node-local multicast address.
• public bool get_is_mc_org_local ()
  Tests whether this is an organization-local multicast address.
• public bool get_is_mc_site_local ()
  Tests whether this is a site-local multicast address.
• public bool get_is_multicast ()
  Tests whether this is a multicast address.
• public bool get_is_site_local ()
  Tests whether this is a site-local address such as 10.0.0.1 (that is, the address identifies a host on a local network that can not be reached directly from the Internet, but which may have outgoing Internet connectivity via a NAT or firewall).
• public size_t get_native_size ()
  Gets the size of the native raw binary address for this.
• public virtual unowned uint8[] to_bytes ()
  Gets the raw binary address data from this .
• public virtual string to_string ()
  Converts this to string form.
