# 1.0.0[−][src]Struct std::net::Ipv4Addr

    pub struct Ipv4Addr { /* fields omitted */ }

An IPv4 address.

IPv4 addresses are defined as 32-bit integers in IETF RFC 791. They are usually represented as four octets.

See `IpAddr` for a type encompassing both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

The size of an `Ipv4Addr` struct may vary depending on the target operating system.

# Textual representation

`Ipv4Addr` provides a `FromStr` implementation. The four octets are in decimal notation, divided by `.` (this is called "dot-decimal notation").

# Examples

    use std::net::Ipv4Addr;

    let localhost = Ipv4Addr::new(127, 0, 0, 1);
    assert_eq!("127.0.0.1".parse(), Ok(localhost));
    assert_eq!(localhost.is_loopback(), true);Run

## Methods

### `impl Ipv4Addr`[src]

#### `pub const fn new(a: u8, b: u8, c: u8, d: u8) -> Ipv4Addr`[src]

Creates a new IPv4 address from four eight-bit octets.

The result will represent the IP address `a`.`b`.`c`.`d`.

# Examples

    use std::net::Ipv4Addr;

    let addr = Ipv4Addr::new(127, 0, 0, 1);Run

#### `pub const LOCALHOST: Self`
1.30.0
[src]

# Examples

    use std::net::Ipv4Addr;

    let addr = Ipv4Addr::LOCALHOST;
    assert_eq!(addr, Ipv4Addr::new(127, 0, 0, 1));Run

#### `pub const UNSPECIFIED: Self`
1.30.0
[src]

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
