# ost\_IPV6Validator(3)

Classes derived from IPV6Address would require an specific validator to pass to the IPV6Address constructor.

## NAME

ost::IPV6Validator - Classes derived from **IPV6Address** would require an specific validator to pass to the **IPV6Address** constructor.

## SYNOPSIS

`#include <address.h>`

Inherited by **ost::IPV6MulticastValidator**.

### Public Member Functions

**IPV6Validator** ()\
 Constructor.  virtual **~IPV6Validator** ()\
 Keeps compilers happy.  virtual void **operator()** (const in6\_addr address) const =0\
 Pure virtual application operator.

## Detailed Description

Classes derived from **IPV6Address** would require an specific validator to pass to the **IPV6Address** constructor.

This is a base class for classes of function objects used by such derived classes.

**Author**
