Description
-----------

IP contains some support functions for the IPv4 protocol. TCP/IP support is in different classes (see :ref:`StreamPeerTCP<class_streampeertcp>` and :ref:`TCP_Server<class_tcp_server>`). IP provides hostname resolution support, both blocking and threaded.

Member Function Description
---------------------------

.. _class_IP_clear_cache:

- void  **clear_cache**  **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` arg0=""  **)**

.. _class_IP_erase_resolve_item:

- void  **erase_resolve_item**  **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` id  **)**

Erase a queue ID, removing it from the queue if needed. This should be used after a queue is completed to free it and enable more queries to happen.

.. _class_IP_get_local_addresses:

- :ref:`Array<class_array>`  **get_local_addresses**  **(** **)** const

.. _class_IP_get_resolve_item_address:

- :ref:`String<class_string>`  **get_resolve_item_address**  **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` id  **)** const

Return a resolved item address, or an empty string if an error happened or resolution didn't happen yet (see :ref:`get_resolve_item_status<class_IP_get_resolve_item_status>`).

.. _class_IP_get_resolve_item_status:

- :ref:`int<class_int>`  **get_resolve_item_status**  **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` id  **)** const

Return the status of hostname queued for resolving, given its queue ID. Returned status can be any of the RESOLVER_STATUS\_\* enumeration.

.. _class_IP_resolve_hostname:

- :ref:`String<class_string>`  **resolve_hostname**  **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` host, :ref:`int<class_int>` ip_type=3  **)**

Resolve a given hostname, blocking. Resolved hostname is returned as an IPv4 or IPv6 depending on "ip_type".

.. _class_IP_resolve_hostname_queue_item:

- :ref:`int<class_int>`  **resolve_hostname_queue_item**  **(** :ref:`String<class_string>` host, :ref:`int<class_int>` ip_type=3  **)**

Create a queue item for resolving a given hostname to an IPv4 or IPv6 depending on "ip_type". The queue ID is returned, or RESOLVER_INVALID_ID on error.
