       address.h - Network addresses and sockets related classes.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cc++/config.h>
       #include <cc++/missing.h>
       #include <cc++/thread.h>
       #include <cc++/exception.h>

   Classes
       class ost::IPV4Validator
           Classes derived from IPV4Address would require an specific validator to pass to the
           IPV4Address constructor.
       class ost::IPV4MulticastValidator
           Class for the function object that validates multicast addresses.
       class ost::IPV4Cidr
           The CIDR class is used to support routing tables and validate address policies.
       class ost::IPV6Cidr
           The CIDR class is used to support routing tables and validate address policies.
       class ost::IPV4Address
           The network name and address objects are all derived from a common IPV4Address base
           class.
       class ost::IPV4Mask
           Internet addresses used specifically as masking addresses (such as ' 255.255.255.0')
           are held in the IPV4Mask derived object. "
       class ost::IPV4Host
           This object is used to hold the actual and valid internet address of a specific host
           machine that will be accessed through a socket.
       class ost::IPV4Broadcast
           The broadcast address object is used to store the broadcast address for a specific
           subnet.
       class ost::IPV4Multicast
           A specialization of IPV4Address that provides address validation for multicast
           addresses.
       class ost::IPV6Validator
           Classes derived from IPV6Address would require an specific validator to pass to the
           IPV6Address constructor.
       class ost::IPV6MulticastValidator
           Class for the function object that validates multicast addresses.
       class ost::IPV6Address
           The network name and address objects are all derived from a common IPV6Address base
           class.
       class ost::IPV6Mask
           Internet addresses used specifically as masking addresses (such as ' 255.255.255.0')
           are held in the IPV6Mask derived object. "
       class ost::IPV6Host
           This object is used to hold the actual and valid internet address of a specific host
           machine that will be accessed through a socket.
       class ost::IPV6Broadcast
           The broadcast address object is used to store the broadcast address for a specific
           subnet.
       class ost::IPV6Multicast
           A specialization of IPV6Address that provides address validation for multicast
           addresses.
