#### ip::basic_address_iterator< address_v4 >::reference

The type of a reference to an element pointed to by the iterator.

    typedef const address_v4 & reference;

###### Types

Name | Description
--- | ---
bytes_type | The type used to represent an address as an array of bytes.
uint_type | The type used to represent an address as an unsigned integer.

###### Member Functions

Name | Description
--- | ---
address_v4 | Default constructor. Construct an address from raw bytes. Construct an address from an unsigned integer in host byte order. Copy constructor.
any | Obtain an address object that represents any address.
broadcast | Obtain an address object that represents the broadcast address. (Deprecated: Use network_v4 class.) Obtain an address object that represents the broadcast address that corresponds to the specified address and netmask.
from_string | (Deprecated: Use make_address_v4().) Create an address from an IP address string in dotted decimal form.
is_class_a | (Deprecated: Use network_v4 class.) Determine whether the address is a class A address.
is_class_b | (Deprecated: Use network_v4 class.) Determine whether the address is a class B address.
is_class_c | (Deprecated: Use network_v4 class.) Determine whether the address is a class C address.
is_loopback | Determine whether the address is a loopback address.
is_multicast | Determine whether the address is a multicast address.
is_unspecified | Determine whether the address is unspecified.
loopback | Obtain an address object that represents the loopback address.
netmask | (Deprecated: Use network_v4 class.) Obtain the netmask that corresponds to the address, based on its address class.
operator= | Assign from another address.
to_bytes | Get the address in bytes, in network byte order.
to_string | Get the address as a string in dotted decimal format. (Deprecated: Use other overload.) Get the address as a string in dotted decimal format.
to_uint | Get the address as an unsigned integer in host byte order.
to_ulong | Get the address as an unsigned long in host byte order.

operator!= | Compare two addresses for inequality.
operator< | Compare addresses for ordering.

make_network_v4 | Create an IPv4 network from an address and prefix length. Create an IPv4 network from an address and netmask.
operator<< | Output an address as a string. Output a network as a string.

The `ip::address_v4` class provides the ability to use and manipulate IP version 4 addresses.
