Description:


Instances of UDSocketAddress represent unix-domain socket names.

ST-80 compatibility class.
This may be required when existing code has to be ported to ST/X;
however, it may not be complete and more protocol may be added in the future.
The code here was created when public domain code (Manchester) had to
be ported to ST/X and missing classes/methods were encountered, and code added
by reasoning 'what the original class could probably do there'.

This is an additional goody class; therefore:

Class protocol:

instance creation
o  allForHostName: hostName serviceName: portNrOrName type: socketTypeSymbol
(comment from inherited method)
get a collection of new instances given a hostname, port or service and type.
Multi-homed hosts return more than one entry

o  anyHost
there is nothing like a 'host' for unix domain sockets.
answer an empty address

o  name: pathName
UDSocketAddress name:'/tmp/aUnixDomainSocket'

o  peerName: peerName port: port
use #name:

** This is an obsolete interface - do not use it (it may vanish in future versions) **

queries
o  domain
ST/X (and a few other dialects) use the define-name in the C include file
as domain symbol. VisualWorks uses other names (see vwDomainSymbol)

o  isLocalHostName: aString
answer true, if aString is or resolves to a local address.
Unix domain sockets are always local.

o  obsoleteDomainSymbol
old ST/X domain symbol - should no longer be used; see domain

o  peerNameFromPeer: peer

o  vwDomainSymbol
ST/X (and a few other dialects) use the define-name in the C include file
as domain symbol. VisualWorks uses another name


Instance protocol:

accessing
o  hostAddress
unix domain sockets are local and do not have a host address

o  name

o  name: pathName

o  port
compatibility with inet sockets

o  port: pathName
compatibility with inet sockets

o  portOrName

comparing
o  sameHostAddress: aSocketAddress
answer true, if myself and aSocketAddress have the same host address
(but possibly different ports).
UnixDomainSockets are always on the same host.

obsolete
o  address

** This is an obsolete interface - do not use it (it may vanish in future versions) **

o  hostName
(comment from inherited method)
(IPSocketAddress hostAddress:#[127 0 0 1]) hostName
(IPSocketAddress hostName:'localhost') address
(IPSocketAddress hostName:'www.google.com') address

(IPSocketAddress hostAddress:#[127 0 0 1] port:7) hostName
(IPSocketAddress hostAddress:#[172 23 1 1] port:10) hostName
(IPSocketAddress hostAddress:#[172 24 1 244]) hostName
(IPv6SocketAddress hostAddress: #[0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1]) hostName
(IPv6SocketAddress hostAddress: #[0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2]) hostName
(IPv6SocketAddress hostAddress: #[0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 255 255 127 0 0 1]) hostName
(IPv6SocketAddress hostAddress: #[0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 255 255 172 23 1 1]) hostName


** This is an obsolete interface - do not use it (it may vanish in future versions) **

o  hostName: hostOrPathName port: portNrOrName

** This is an obsolete interface - do not use it (it may vanish in future versions) **

printing & storing
o  printOn: aStream
(self name:'/tmp/abcde') printString

testing
o  isLocal
answer true, if this address addresses a peer on the same host
