Virtual Method

GioProxysupports_hostname

since: 2.26

Declaration

gboolean
supports_hostname (
  GProxy* proxy
)

Description

Some proxy protocols expect to be passed a hostname, which they will resolve to an IP address themselves. Others, like SOCKS4, do not allow this. This function will return FALSE if proxy is implementing such a protocol. When FALSE is returned, the caller should resolve the destination hostname first, and then pass a GProxyAddress containing the stringified IP address to g_proxy_connect() or g_proxy_connect_async().

Available since: 2.26

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE if hostname resolution is supported.
