IPV4Host& ost::IPV4Host::operator&= (const IPV4Mask &mask)¶

Mask the internet host address object with a network mask address. This is commonly used to coerce an address by subnet.

IPV4Address& ost::IPV4Host::operator= (unsigned longaddr) [inline]¶

Allows assignment from the return of functions like inet_addr() or htonl() References ost::IPV4Address::operator=().
