Detailed Description

#include< ipv6_addr.h>


The IPADDR C++ objects were created to provide a portable and easy implementation to support IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses. There are 3 types of IPADDR objects:

  • IPADDR4: Used exclusively for IPv4 addresses
  • IPADDR6: Used for either an IPv6 or IPv4 address
  • IPADDR: The typedef IPADDR is defines a type IPADDR6. Its purpose is to provide clarity that an IPADDR object can be used for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Any functions called with a parameter of type IPADDR will automatically execute the correct IPv4 or IPv6 underling function.
