ACE_INET_Addr类 API

ACE_INET_Addr类，在这个ACE_网络框架中，应该是比较重要的辅助类，该类主要封装了C SOCKET 的地址对象，通过外观封装的模式，把struct sockaddr_in封装在内。方便用户的操作。 

 

因此个人认为掌握此类的常用构造方法和常用的成员函数，并深刻的理解，对于后续的学习ACE或者开发ACE网络应用程序应该会起到很大的帮助。工欲用其器、必先利其器。就先让我们把ACE_INET_Addr对象深刻的牢记在心中吧。

总结：

1.在set、set_port_number、set_address中都提供了一个参数@encode,此参数在构造函数的参数中并没有提供。因为也意味着，使用任何一个构造函数来创建一个ACE_INET_Addr对象时，其地址和端口必须是主机字节序的。如果地址或者端口为网络字节序时，必须转换为主机字节序才可以使用构造函数。或者使用默认的构造函数，在通过set、set_port_number、set_address等成员函数，指定encode参数为FALSE(0)时，也可以直接把网络字节序的地址和端口设置给ACE_INET_Addr对象。如果地址和端口是2中不同的字节序，需要分别使用set_address和set_port_number进行设置，否则就可以使用set函数一次性设置地址和端口。

2.比较2个ACE_INET_Addr对象的相等性。 根据情况使用不同的成员函数。

 

  地址和端口都要相等时，使用 ==进行比较。

 

  只比较地址时，忽略端口时。使用 is_ip_equal 成员函数。
