Detailed Description
Unix streams are used to represent Unix domain client connections to a local server for accepting client connections.
The Unix stream is a C++ "stream" class, and can accept streaming of data to and from other C++ objects using the << and >> operators.
Unix Stream itself can be formed either by connecting to a bound network address of a Unix domain server, or can be created when "accepting" a network connection from a Unix domain server.

Definition at line 676 of file socket.h.
Get the local address and port number this socket is currently bound to.
- Parameters
-
port ptr to port number on local host.
- Returns
- host address of interface this socket is bound to.
Perform NAT table lookup for this socket.
Used to allow an application to know the original ip:port pair the the client "thinks" it is connecting to. Used mostly to transparently impersonate a remote server/service.
On error, 0.0.0.0:0 is returned and one of the following error codes is set: errServiceUnavailable - if nat is not supported on the current platform or if it was not compiled; errLookupFail - if the nat syscall failed for some reason (extended error code); errSearchErr - if the socket does not have nat information (i.e. is not nated).
NAT lookup is supported on NetFilter for ipv4 and ipv6 (Linux), IPFilter for ipv4 (Solaris, *BSD except OpenBSD, HP-UX, etc.) and Packet Filter for ipv4 and ipv6 (OpenBSD). When using IPFilter or Packet Filter, the first NAT lookup must be performed as root (the NAT device is read only for root and is opened once, unless an error occurs). Permissions on the nat device may be changed to solve this.
- Warning
- When using IPFilter and Packet Filter, application data model must be the same as the running kernel (32/64 bits).
- Parameters
-
port ptr to NATed port number on local host.
- Returns
- NATed host address that this socket is related to.
Get the host address and port of the socket this socket is connected to.
If the socket is currently not in a connected state, then a host address of 0.0.0.0 is returned.
- Parameters
-
port ptr to port number of remote socket.
- Returns
- host address of remote socket.
May be used to examine the origin of data waiting in the socket receive queue.
This can tell a TCP server where pending "connect" requests are coming from, or a UDP socket where it's next packet arrived from.
- Parameters
-
port ptr to port number of sender.
- Returns
- host address, test with "isInetAddress()".
Reimplemented in DCCPSocket.
