## Implemented Interfaces

GNetworkService implements GSocketConnectable.

## Includes

    #include <gio/gio.h>

## Description

Like GNetworkAddress does with hostnames, GNetworkService provides an easy way to resolve a SRV record, and then attempt to connect to one of the hosts that implements that service, handling service priority/weighting, multiple IP addresses, and multiple address families.

See GSrvTarget for more information about SRV records, and see GSocketConnectable for and example of using the connectable interface.

## Functions

### g_network_service_new ()

    GSocketConnectable *
    g_network_service_new (const gchar *service,
                           const gchar *protocol,
                           const gchar *domain);

Creates a new GNetworkService representing the given `service` , `protocol` , and `domain` . This will initially be unresolved; use the GSocketConnectable interface to resolve it.

#### Parameters

service | the service type to look up (eg, "ldap") |
protocol | the networking protocol to use for `service` (eg, "tcp") |
domain | the DNS domain to look up the service in |

#### Returns

a new GNetworkService.

[transfer full][type GNetworkService]

Since 2.22

### g_network_service_get_service ()

    const gchar *
    g_network_service_get_service (GNetworkService *srv);

Gets `srv` 's service name (eg, "ldap").

#### Parameters

srv | a GNetworkService |

#### Returns

`srv` 's service name

Since 2.22

### g_network_service_get_protocol ()

    const gchar *
    g_network_service_get_protocol (GNetworkService *srv);

Gets `srv` 's protocol name (eg, "tcp").

#### Parameters

srv | a GNetworkService |

#### Returns

`srv` 's protocol name

Since 2.22

### g_network_service_get_domain ()

    const gchar *
    g_network_service_get_domain (GNetworkService *srv);

Gets the domain that `srv` serves. This might be either UTF-8 or ASCII-encoded, depending on what `srv` was created with.

#### Parameters

srv | a GNetworkService |

#### Returns

`srv` 's domain name

Since 2.22

### g_network_service_get_scheme ()

    const gchar *
    g_network_service_get_scheme (GNetworkService *srv);

Get's the URI scheme used to resolve proxies. By default, the service name is used as scheme.

#### Parameters

srv | a GNetworkService |

#### Returns

`srv` 's scheme name

Since 2.26

### g_network_service_set_scheme ()

    void
    g_network_service_set_scheme (GNetworkService *srv,
                                  const gchar *scheme);

Set's the URI scheme used to resolve proxies. By default, the service name is used as scheme.

#### Parameters

srv | a GNetworkService |
scheme | a URI scheme |

Since 2.26
