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.

Index

Constructors

  • new SrvTarget(hostname: string, port: number, priority: number, weight: number): SrvTarget
  • Creates a new #GSrvTarget with the given parameters.

    You should not need to use this; normally #GSrvTargets are created by #GResolver.

    Parameters

    • hostname: string

      the host that the service is running on

    • port: number

      the port that the service is running on

    • priority: number

      the target's priority

    • weight: number

      the target's weight

    Returns SrvTarget

Properties

name: string

Methods

  • free(): void
  • getHostname(): string
  • 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.)

    Returns string

  • getPort(): number
  • getPriority(): number
  • Gets target's priority. You should not need to look at this; #GResolver already sorts the targets according to the algorithm in RFC 2782.

    Returns number

  • getWeight(): number
  • Gets target's weight. You should not need to look at this; #GResolver already sorts the targets according to the algorithm in RFC 2782.

    Returns number

  • new(hostname: string, port: number, priority: number, weight: number): SrvTarget
  • Creates a new #GSrvTarget with the given parameters.

    You should not need to use this; normally #GSrvTargets are created by #GResolver.

    Parameters

    • hostname: string

      the host that the service is running on

    • port: number

      the port that the service is running on

    • priority: number

      the target's priority

    • weight: number

      the target's weight

    Returns SrvTarget
