### Class

# Gio NativeSocketAddress

since: 2.46

#### Description

    class Gio.NativeSocketAddress : Gio.SocketAddress
      implements Gio.SocketConnectable {
      /* No available fields */
    }

A socket address of some unknown native type.

This corresponds to a general `struct sockaddr` of a type not otherwise handled by GLib.

Available since: 2.46

#### Ancestors

- GSocketAddress
- GObject

#### Implements

- GSocketConnectable

#### Constructors

###### g_native_socket_address_new

Creates a new `GNativeSocketAddress` for `native` and `len`.

since: 2.46

#### Instance methods

##### Methods inherited from GSocketAddress (3)

###### g_socket_address_get_family

Gets the socket family type of `address`.

since: 2.22

###### g_socket_address_get_native_size

Gets the size of `address`‘s native struct sockaddr. You can use this to allocate memory to pass to g_socket_address_to_native().

since: 2.22

###### g_socket_address_to_native

Converts a `GSocketAddress` to a native struct sockaddr, which can be passed to low-level functions like `connect()` or bind().

##### Methods inherited from GObject (43)

Please see GObject for a full list of methods.

##### Methods inherited from GSocketConnectable (3)

###### g_socket_connectable_enumerate

Creates a `GSocketAddressEnumerator` for `connectable`.

since: 2.22

###### g_socket_connectable_proxy_enumerate

Creates a `GSocketAddressEnumerator` for `connectable` that will return a `GProxyAddress` for each of its addresses that you must connect to via a proxy.

since: 2.26

###### g_socket_connectable_to_string

Format a `GSocketConnectable` as a string. This is a human-readable format for use in debugging output, and is not a stable serialization format. It is not suitable for use in user interfaces as it exposes too much information for a user.

since: 2.48

#### Properties

###### Gio.SocketAddress:family

The family of the socket address.

#### Signals

##### Signals inherited from GObject (1)

###### GObject::notify

The notify signal is emitted on an object when one of its properties has its value set through g_object_set_property(), g_object_set(), et al.
