Network

Energy.Core.Network provides high-level networking helpers built on top of Energy.Base.Network.

Host resolution

string address = Energy.Core.Network.GetHostAddress("localhost");
string address6 = Energy.Core.Network.GetHostAddress("example.com", System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetworkV6);

Address family and socket type

System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily family = Energy.Core.Network.GetAddressFamily("192.168.1.1");
System.Net.Sockets.SocketType type = Energy.Core.Network.GetSocketType(
    System.Net.Sockets.ProtocolType.Tcp, family);

Socket helpers

System.Net.Sockets.Socket socket = new System.Net.Sockets.Socket(...);

bool connected = Energy.Core.Network.IsConnected(socket);
Energy.Core.Network.Shutdown(socket);

Host name

string host = Energy.Core.Network.GetHostName();

Settings

Energy.Core.Network.Settings.AddressFamily = System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetwork;
