impl SockAddrStorage

fn zeroed() -> Self

Construct a new storage containing all zeros.

fn size_of(&self) -> socklen_t

Returns the size of this storage.

unsafe fn view_as<T>(&mut self) -> &mut T

View this type as another type.

Safety

The type T must be one of the sockaddr_* types defined by this platform.

Examples

# #[allow(dead_code)]
# #[cfg(unix)] mod unix_example {
# use core::mem::size_of;
use libc::sockaddr_storage;
use socket2::{SockAddr, SockAddrStorage, socklen_t};

fn from_sockaddr_storage(recv_address: &sockaddr_storage) -> SockAddr {
    let mut storage = SockAddrStorage::zeroed();
    let libc_address = unsafe { storage.view_as::<sockaddr_storage>() };
    *libc_address = *recv_address;
    unsafe { SockAddr::new(storage, size_of::<sockaddr_storage>() as socklen_t) }
}
