<methods>
<method name="clear_cache">
<return type="void">
</return>
<argument index="0" name="hostname" type="String" default="&quot;&quot;">
</argument>
<description>
Removes all of a [code]hostname[/code]'s cached references. If no [code]hostname[/code] is given, all cached IP addresses are removed.
</description>
</method>
<method name="erase_resolve_item">
<return type="void">
</return>
<argument index="0" name="id" type="int">
</argument>
<description>
Removes a given item [code]id[/code] from the queue. This should be used to free a queue after it has completed to enable more queries to happen.
</description>
</method>
<method name="get_local_addresses" qualifiers="const">
<return type="Array">
</return>
<description>
Returns all the user's current IPv4 and IPv6 addresses as an array.
</description>
</method>
<method name="get_local_interfaces" qualifiers="const">
<return type="Array">
</return>
<description>
Returns all network adapters as an array.
Each adapter is a dictionary of the form:
[codeblock]
{
"index": "1", # Interface index.
"name": "eth0", # Interface name.
"friendly": "Ethernet One", # A friendly name (might be empty).
"addresses": ["192.168.1.101"], # An array of IP addresses associated to this interface.
}
[/codeblock]

<method name="get_resolve_item_address" qualifiers="const">
<return type="String">
</return>
<argument index="0" name="id" type="int">
</argument>
<description>
Returns a queued hostname's IP address, given its queue [code]id[/code]. Returns an empty string on error or if resolution hasn't happened yet (see [method get_resolve_item_status]).

<method name="get_resolve_item_status" qualifiers="const">
<return type="int" enum="IP.ResolverStatus">
</return>

<description>
Returns a queued hostname's status as a [enum ResolverStatus] constant, given its queue [code]id[/code].

<description>
Returns a given hostname's IPv4 or IPv6 address when resolved (blocking-type method). The address type returned depends on the [enum Type] constant given as [code]ip_type[/code].

<description>
Creates a queue item to resolve a hostname to an IPv4 or IPv6 address depending on the [enum Type] constant given as [code]ip_type[/code]. Returns the queue ID if successful, or [constant RESOLVER_INVALID_ID] on error.
