Declaration [src]
guint16
g_socket_listener_add_any_inet_port (
GSocketListener* listener,
GObject* source_object,
GError** error
)
Description [src]
Listens for TCP connections on any available port number for both IPv6 and IPv4 (if each is available).
This is useful if you need to have a socket for incoming connections but don’t care about the specific port number.
If possible, the GSocketListener will listen on both IPv4 and
IPv6 (listening on the same port on both). If listening on one of the socket
families fails, the GSocketListener will only listen on the other.
If listening on both fails, an error will be returned.
If you need to distinguish whether listening on IPv4 or IPv6 or both was
successful, connect to GSocketListener::event.
source_object will be passed out in the various calls
to accept to identify this particular source, which is
useful if you’re listening on multiple addresses and do
different things depending on what address is connected to.
Available since: 2.24
