# Function std::net::lookup_host [−] [src]

    pub fn lookup_host(host: &str) -> Result<LookupHost>

Unstable (`lookup_host` #27705)

: unsure about the returned iterator and returning socket addresses

Resolve the host specified by `host` as a number of `SocketAddr` instances.

This method may perform a DNS query to resolve `host` and may also inspect system configuration to resolve the specified hostname.

# Examples

#![feature(lookup_host)] fn main() { use std::net; fn foo() -> std::io::Result<()> { for host in try!(net::lookup_host("rust-lang.org")) { println!("found address: {}", try!(host)); } Ok(()) } }

    #![feature(lookup_host)]

    use std::net;

    for host in try!(net::lookup_host("rust-lang.org")) {
        println!("found address: {}", try!(host));
    }

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
