Instance Method Details

#lookup_by_address(address, cancellable) ⇒ String

Synchronously reverse-resolves address to determine its associated hostname.

If the DNS resolution fails, error (if non-nil) will be set to a value from GResolver::Error.

If cancellable is non-nil, it can be used to cancel the operation, in which case error (if non-nil) will be set to %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED.

Parameters:

• address (Gio::InetAddress) —

  the address to reverse-resolve

• cancellable (Gio::Cancellable) —

  a #GCancellable, or nil

Returns:

• (String) —

  a hostname (either ASCII-only, or in ASCII-encoded form), or nil on error.

#lookup_by_address_async(address, cancellable, callback, user_data) ⇒ nil

Begins asynchronously reverse-resolving address to determine its associated hostname, and eventually calls callback, which must call g_resolver_lookup_by_address_finish() to get the final result.

Parameters:

• address (Gio::InetAddress) —

  the address to reverse-resolve

• cancellable (Gio::Cancellable) —

  a #GCancellable, or nil

• callback (Gio::AsyncReadyCallback) —

  callback to call after resolution completes

• user_data (GObject) —

  data for callback

Returns:

• (nil)

#lookup_by_address_finish(result) ⇒ String

Retrieves the result of a previous call to g_resolver_lookup_by_address_async().

If the DNS resolution failed, error (if non-nil) will be set to a value from GResolver::Error. If the operation was cancelled, error will be set to %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED. form), or nil on error.

Parameters:

• result (Gio::AsyncResult) —

  the result passed to your GAsync::ReadyCallback

Returns:

• (String) —

  a hostname (either ASCII-only, or in ASCII-encoded

#lookup_by_name(hostname, cancellable) ⇒ GLib::List

Synchronously resolves hostname to determine its associated IP address(es). hostname may be an ASCII-only or UTF-8 hostname, or the textual form of an IP address (in which case this just becomes a wrapper around g_inet_address_new_from_string()).

On success, g_resolver_lookup_by_name() will return a non-empty #GList of GInet::Address, sorted in order of preference and guaranteed to not contain duplicates. That is, if using the result to connect to hostname, you should attempt to connect to the first address first, then the second if the first fails, etc. If you are using the result to listen on a socket, it is appropriate to add each result using e.g. g_socket_listener_add_address().

If the DNS resolution fails, error (if non-nil) will be set to a value from GResolver::Error and nil will be returned.

If cancellable is non-nil, it can be used to cancel the operation, in which case error (if non-nil) will be set to %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED.

If you are planning to connect to a socket on the resolved IP address, it may be easier to create a GNetwork::Address and use its GSocket::Connectable interface. of GInet::Address, or nil on error. You must unref each of the addresses and free the list when you are done with it. (You can use g_resolver_free_addresses() to do this.)

Parameters:

• hostname (String) —

  the hostname to look up

• cancellable (Gio::Cancellable) —

  a #GCancellable, or nil

Returns:

• (GLib::List) —

  a non-empty #GList

#lookup_by_name_async(hostname, cancellable, callback, user_data) ⇒ nil

Begins asynchronously resolving hostname to determine its associated IP address(es), and eventually calls callback, which must call g_resolver_lookup_by_name_finish() to get the result. See g_resolver_lookup_by_name() for more details.

Parameters:

• hostname (String) —

  the hostname to look up the address of

• cancellable (Gio::Cancellable) —

  a #GCancellable, or nil

• callback (Gio::AsyncReadyCallback) —

  callback to call after resolution completes

  data for callback

Returns:

• (nil)

#lookup_by_name_finish(result) ⇒ GLib::List

This differs from g_resolver_lookup_by_name() in that you can modify the lookup behavior with flags. For example this can be used to limit results with #G_RESOLVER_NAME_LOOKUP_FLAGS_IPV4_ONLY. of GInet::Address, or nil on error. You must unref each of the addresses and free the list when you are done with it. (You can use g_resolver_free_addresses() to do this.)

#lookup_by_name_with_flags_finish(result) ⇒ GLib::List

Retrieves the result of a call to g_resolver_lookup_by_name_with_flags_async().

If the DNS resolution failed, error (if non-nil) will be set to a value from GResolver::Error. If the operation was cancelled, error will be set to %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED. of GInet::Address, or nil on error. See g_resolver_lookup_by_name() for more details.

If the DNS resolution fails, error (if non-nil) will be set to a value from GResolver::Error and nil will be returned.

If cancellable is non-nil, it can be used to cancel the operation, in which case error (if non-nil) will be set to %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED. #GVariant, or nil on error.

If the DNS resolution failed, error (if non-nil) will be set to a value from GResolver::Error. If the operation was cancelled, error will be set to %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED. #GVariant, or nil on error. You must free each of the records and the list when you are done with it. (You can use g_list_free_full() with g_variant_unref() to do this.)

#lookup_service(service, protocol, domain, cancellable) ⇒ GLib::List

Synchronously performs a DNS SRV lookup for the given service and protocol in the given domain and returns an array of GSrv::Target. domain may be an ASCII-only or UTF-8 hostname. Note also that the service and protocol arguments do not include the leading underscore that appears in the actual DNS entry.

On success, g_resolver_lookup_service() will return a non-empty #GList of GSrv::Target, sorted in order of preference. (That is, you should attempt to connect to the first target first, then the second if the first fails, etc.)

#set_default ⇒ nil

Sets resolver to be the application’s default resolver (reffing resolver, and unreffing the previous default resolver, if any). Future calls to g_resolver_get_default() will return this resolver.

This can be used if an application wants to perform any sort of DNS caching or “pinning”; it can implement its own #GResolver that calls the original default resolver for DNS operations, and implements its own cache policies on top of that, and then set itself as the default resolver for all later code to use.

Returns:

• (nil)
