<p>QHostInfo uses the lookup mechanisms provided by the operating system to find the IP address(es) associated with a host name, or the host name associated with an IP address. The class provides two static convenience functions: one that works asynchronously and emits a signal once the host is found, and one that blocks and returns a QHostInfo object.</p>
<p>To look up a host's IP addresses asynchronously, call <a href="qhostinfo.html#lookupHost">lookupHost</a>(), which takes the host name or IP address, a receiver object, and a slot signature as arguments and returns an ID. You can abort the lookup by calling <a href="qhostinfo.html#abortHostLookup">abortHostLookup</a>() with the lookup ID.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre>
// To find the IP address of www.trolltech.com
QHostInfo.lookupHost("www.trolltech.com",
this, SLOT(printResults(QHostInfo)));
// To find the host name for 4.2.2.1
QHostInfo.lookupHost("4.2.2.1",
this, SLOT(printResults(QHostInfo)));
</pre>
<p>The slot is invoked when the results are ready. (If you use Qtopia Core and disabled multithread support by defining <tt>QT_NO_THREAD</tt>, <a href="qhostinfo.html#lookupHost">lookupHost</a>() will block until the lookup has finished.) The results are stored in a QHostInfo object. Call <a href="qhostinfo.html#addresses">addresses</a>() to get the list of IP addresses for the host, and <a href="qhostinfo.html#hostName">hostName</a>() to get the host name that was looked up.</p>
<p>If the lookup failed, <a href="qhostinfo.html#error">error</a>() returns the type of error that occurred. <a href="qhostinfo.html#errorString">errorString</a>() gives a human-readable description of the lookup error.</p>
<p>If you want a blocking lookup, use the <a href="qhostinfo.html#fromName">QHostInfo.fromName</a>() function:</p>
<pre>
QHostInfo info = QHostInfo.fromName("www.trolltech.com");
</pre>
<p>QHostInfo supports Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) through the IDNA and Punycode standards.</p>
<p>To retrieve the name of the local host, use the static <a href="qhostinfo.html#localHostName">QHostInfo.localHostName</a>() function.</p>

<h3 class="fn"><a name="abortHostLookup" />QHostInfo.abortHostLookup (int <i>lookupId</i>)</h3><p>Aborts the host lookup with the ID <i>id</i>, as returned by <a href="qhostinfo.html#lookupHost">lookupHost</a>().</p>
<p>See also <a href="qhostinfo.html#lookupHost">lookupHost</a>() and <a href="qhostinfo.html#lookupId">lookupId</a>().</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="addresses" />QHostAddress-list QHostInfo.addresses (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the list of IP addresses associated with <a href="qhostinfo.html#hostName">hostName</a>(). This list may be empty.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre>
QHostInfo info;
...
if (!info.addresses.isEmpty()) {
QHostAddress address = info.addresses().first();
// use the first IP address
}
</pre>
<p>See also <a href="qhostinfo.html#setAddresses">setAddresses</a>(), <a href="qhostinfo.html#hostName">hostName</a>(), and <a href="qhostinfo.html#error">error</a>().</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="error" /><a href="qhostinfo.html#HostInfoError-enum">HostInfoError</a> QHostInfo.error (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the type of error that occurred if the host name lookup failed; otherwise returns <a href="qhostinfo.html#HostInfoError-enum">NoError</a>.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qhostinfo.html#setError">setError</a>() and <a href="qhostinfo.html#errorString">errorString</a>().</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="errorString" /><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> QHostInfo.errorString (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>If the lookup failed, this function returns a human readable description of the error; otherwise "Unknown error" is returned.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qhostinfo.html#setErrorString">setErrorString</a>() and <a href="qhostinfo.html#error">error</a>().</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="fromName" /><a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> QHostInfo.fromName (<a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <i>name</i>)</h3><p>Looks up the IP address(es) for the given host <i>name</i>. The function blocks during the lookup which means that execution of the program is suspended until the results of the lookup are ready. Returns the result of the lookup in a <a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> object.</p>
<p>If you pass a literal IP address to <i>name</i> instead of a host name, <a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> will search for the domain name for the IP (i.e., <a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> will perform a <i>reverse</i> lookup). On success, the returned <a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> will contain both the resolved domain name and IP addresses for the host name.</p>

<h3 class="fn"><a name="hostName" /><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> QHostInfo.hostName (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the name of the host whose IP addresses were looked up.</p>

When the result of the lookup is ready, the slot or signal <i>member</i> in <i>receiver</i> is called with a <a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> argument. The <a href="qhostinfo.html">QHostInfo</a> object can then be inspected to get the results of the lookup.</p>
<p>The lookup is performed by a single function call, for example:</p>
<pre>
QHostInfo.lookupHost("www.kde.org",
this, SLOT(lookedUp(QHostInfo)));
</pre>
<p>The implementation of the slot prints basic information about the addresses returned by the lookup, or reports an error if it failed:</p>
<pre>
void MyWidget.lookedUp(const QHostInfo &host)
{
if (host.error() != QHostInfo.NoError) {
qDebug() << "Lookup failed:" << host.errorString();
return;
}
foreach (QHostAddress address, host.addresses())
qDebug() << "Found address:" << address.toString();
}
</pre>
