Class SrvTarget

java.lang.Object
All Implemented Interfaces:
Proxy

@Generated("io.github.jwharm.JavaGI") public class SrvTarget extends ProxyInstance
A single target host/port that a network service is running on.

SRV (service) records are used by some network protocols to provide service-specific aliasing and load-balancing. For example, XMPP (Jabber) uses SRV records to locate the XMPP server for a domain; rather than connecting directly to ‘example.com’ or assuming a specific server hostname like ‘xmpp.example.com’, an XMPP client would look up the xmpp-client SRV record for ‘example.com’, and then connect to whatever host was pointed to by that record.

You can use Resolver.lookupService(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, org.gnome.gio.Cancellable) or Resolver.lookupServiceAsync(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, org.gnome.gio.Cancellable, org.gnome.gio.AsyncReadyCallback) to find the GSrvTargets for a given service. However, if you are simply planning to connect to the remote service, you can use NetworkService’s SocketConnectable interface and not need to worry about GSrvTarget at all.
