Creates a new #GSrvTarget with the given parameters.
You should not need to use this; normally #GSrvTargets are created by #GResolver.

Copies target
Frees target
Gets target's hostname (in ASCII form; if you are going to present
this to the user, you should use g_hostname_is_ascii_encoded() to
check if it contains encoded Unicode segments, and use
g_hostname_to_unicode() to convert it if it does.)
Gets target's port
Gets target's priority. You should not need to look at this;
#GResolver already sorts the targets according to the algorithm in
RFC 2782.

SRV (service) records are used by some network protocols to provide service-specific aliasing and load-balancing. For example, XMPP (Jabber) uses SRV records to locate the XMPP server for a domain; rather than connecting directly to "example.com" or assuming a specific server hostname like "xmpp.example.com", an XMPP client would look up the "xmpp-client" SRV record for "example.com", and then connect to whatever host was pointed to by that record.
You can use g_resolver_lookup_service() or g_resolver_lookup_service_async() to find the #GSrvTargets for a given service. However, if you are simply planning to connect to the remote service, you can use #GNetworkService's #GSocketConnectable interface and not need to worry about #GSrvTarget at all.
