27 * @include: gio/gio.h
29 * Objects that describe one or more potential socket endpoints
30 * implement #GSocketConnectable. Callers can then use
31 * g_socket_connectable_enumerate() to get a #GSocketAddressEnumerator
32 * to try out each socket address in turn until one succeeds, as shown
33 * in the sample code below.
