to_native

Description:

public virtual bool to_native (void* dest, size_t destlen) throws Error

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

If not enough space is available, a g_io_error_no_space error is returned. If the address type is not known on the system then a g_io_error_not_supported error is returned.

Parameters:

this	a SocketAddress
dest	a pointer to a memory location that will contain the native struct sockaddr
destlen	the size of `dest`. Must be at least as large as get_native_size

Returns:

true if dest was filled in, false on error
