## Class Description

     TInetAddress

     This class represents an Internet Protocol (IP) address.

TInetAddress()

     Default ctor. Used in case of unknown host. Not a valid address.

TInetAddress(const char *host, UInt_t addr, Int_t family, Int_t port)

     Create TInetAddress. Private ctor. TInetAddress objects can only
     be created via the friend classes TSystem, TServerSocket and TSocket.
     Use the IsValid() method to check the validity of a TInetAddress.

TInetAddress(const TInetAddress &adr) : TObject(adr)

     TInetAddress copy ctor.

UChar_t* GetAddressBytes() const

     Returns the raw IP address in host byte order. The highest
     order byte position is in addr[0]. To be prepared for 64-bit
     IP addresses an array of bytes is returned.
     User must delete allocated memory.

const char* GetHostAddress(UInt_t addr)

     Returns the IP address string "%d.%d.%d.%d", use it to convert
     alternative addresses obtained via GetAddresses().
     Copy string immediately, it will be reused. Static function.

const char* GetHostAddress() const

     Returns the IP address string "%d.%d.%d.%d".
     Copy string immediately, it will be reused.

void Print(Option_t *) const

     Print internet address as string.

void AddAddress(UInt_t addr)

     Add alternative address to list of addresses.

void AddAlias(const char *alias)

     Add alias to list of aliases.

void Streamer(TBuffer &R__b)

     Stream an object of class TInetAddress.

### Inline Functions

                                          void ~TInetAddress()
                                 TInetAddress& operator=(const TInetAddress& rhs)
                                        UInt_t GetAddress() const
