Address Class Reference

Inheritance diagram for Address:

List of all members.

---

Detailed Description

Address represents a mail address as described in RFC 2822. You may not create instances of Address, since Address is an abstract base class. Instead, you create instances of Mailbox or Group, which are subclasses of Address.

If the string representation assigned to an Address is improperly formed, the parse operation will fail. To determine if the parse operation failed, call the member function isValid().

Public Member Functions
virtual	~Address ()
	Destructor.
bool	isValid () const
	Returns true if the address is valid.
Protected Member Functions
	Address ()
	Default constructor.
	Address (const Address &other)
	Copy constructor.
	Address (const String &str, Node *parent=0)
	Constructor that takes an initial string and parent node.
const Address &	operator= (const Address &other)
	Assignment operator.
Protected Attributes
bool	mIsValid
	Set to true if the parse operation was successful.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~Address (   )  [virtual]

Destructor

Address (   )  [protected]

This constructor sets the Address object's string representation to the empty string and sets its parent node to NULL.

Address (  const Address &  other  )  [protected]

This constructor performs a deep copy of its argument. The parent node of the new Address object is set to NULL. Parameters: other  Address instance to copy

Address (  const String &  str, Node *  parent = 0 )  [protected]

This constructor sets the Address object's string representation to str and sets its parent node to parent. Normally, you call the virtual function parse() immediately after this constructor to create the broken-down representation. Parameters: str  initial value for the string representation parent  parent node for this object

Member Function Documentation

bool isValid (   )  const

Returns true value if the last parse operation was successful. Returns false if the last parse operation failed (bad address) or the parse() member function was never called. Returns: true if last parse operation succeeded

const Address & operator= (  const Address &  other  )  [protected]

Performs a deep copy of its argument. The parent node of this Address object is not changed. Parameters: other  Address instance to copy
