Description

Details

soup_tld_get_base_domain ()

const char *        soup_tld_get_base_domain            (const char *hostname,
                                                         GError **error);

Finds the base domain for a given hostname. The base domain is composed by the top level domain (such as .org, .com, .co.uk, etc) plus the second level domain, for example for myhost.mydomain.com it will return mydomain.com.

Note that NULL will be returned for private URLs (those not ending with any well known TLD) because choosing a base domain for them would be totally arbitrary.

This method only works for valid UTF-8 hostnames in their canonical representation form, so you should use g_hostname_to_unicode() to get the canonical representation if that is not the case.

hostname :

a UTF-8 hostname in its canonical representation form

error :

return location for a GError, or NULL to ignore errors. See SoupTLDError for the available error codes

Returns :

a pointer to the start of the base domain in hostname. If an error occurs, NULL will be returned and error set.

Since 2.40


soup_tld_domain_is_public_suffix ()

gboolean            soup_tld_domain_is_public_suffix    (const char *domain);

Looks whether the domain passed as argument is a public domain suffix (.org, .com, .co.uk, etc) or not.

This method only works for valid UTF-8 domains in their canonical representation form, so you should use g_hostname_to_unicode() to get the canonical representation if that is not the case.

domain :

a UTF-8 domain in its canonical representation form

Returns :

TRUE if it is a public domain, FALSE otherwise.

Since 2.40
