How to get pv host address in p4p

[wanglin86769]

Is there a way to get the PV host address in p4p like the following pyepics code?

import epics
pv = epics.PV("calcExample")
print(pv.host) 

If not, is it possible to expose it in ctxt.get('pv:name'), ctxt.info('pv:name') or any other ways in future version?

At present, it seems not. At least on the client side. With the c++ client API, the peerName is currently only available through the special Connected exception for monitor queues. Not so friendly. Thinking about it, the better place would be through the Connect object.
