Detailed Description

Function Documentation

const char* NET_AdrToString

(

netadr_t

a

)

Convert an address to a string.

Include the port number in the string.

Warning

The return value is a pointer to a static buffer. The returned string must be saved if mixing calls with different addresses.

Parameters

a	The address to convert

Returns

The address in human readable form.

const char* NET_BaseAdrToString

(

netadr_t

a

)

Convert an address to a string.

Do not include the port number in the string.

Warning

The return value is a pointer to a static buffer. The returned string must be saved if mixing calls with different addresses.

Parameters

a	The address to convert

Returns

The address in human readable form.

qboolean NET_CompareAdr	(	netadr_t	a,
		netadr_t	b
	)

Compare two network addresses.

Compare the port number too.

Parameters

a	The first address to compare.
b	The second address to compare.

Returns

True of the addresses match, otherwise false.

qboolean NET_CompareBaseAdr	(	netadr_t	a,
		netadr_t	b
	)

Compare two network addresses.

Ignore the port number.

Parameters

a	The first address to compare.
b	The second address to compare.

Returns

True of the addresses match, otherwise false.

qboolean NET_GetPacket

(

void

)

Read a single packet from the network into net_message.

Returns

True if successfully read, otherwise false.

void NET_Init

(

int

port

)

Initialize the UDP network interface.

Opens a single socket to be used for all communications.

Parameters

port	The port to which the socket will be bound.

void NET_SendPacket	(	int	length,
		const void *	data,
		netadr_t	to
	)

Send a data packet out to the network.

Parameters

length	The length of the data to be sent.
data	The data to be sent.
to	The address to which the data will be sent.

void NET_Shutdown

(

void

)

Shutdown the UDP network interface.

qboolean NET_StringToAdr	(	const char *	s,
		netadr_t *	a
	)

Convert a human readable address to a quake address.

Accepts both host names (full or partial) and numeric form.

If a port is specified, the port value in the address will be set to that value, otherwise it will be set to 0.

Parameters

[in]	s	The human readable address to be converted.
[out]	a	The resulting address of the conversion.

Returns

True if the conversion is successful, otherwise false.
