Class java.net.InetAddress
java.lang.Object
|
+----java.net.InetAddress
public final class InetAddress
extends Object
implements Serializable
This class represents an Internet Protocol (IP) address.
Applications should use the methods getLocalHost,
getByName, or getAllByName to
create a new InetAddress instance.
See Also:
getAllByName, getByName, getLocalHost
equals(Object)
Compares this object against the specified object.
getAddress()
Returns the raw IP address of this InetAddress
object.
getAllByName(String)
Determines all the IP addresses of a host, given the host's name.
getByName(String)
Determines the IP address of a host, given the host's name.
getHostAddress()
Returns the IP address string "%d.%d.%d.%d"
getHostName()
Returns the fully qualified host name for this address.
getLocalHost()
Returns the local host.
hashCode()
Returns a hashcode for this IP address.
isMulticastAddress()
Utility routine to check if the InetAddress is a
IP multicast address.
toString()
Converts this IP address to a String.
isMulticastAddress
public boolean isMulticastAddress()
Utility routine to check if the InetAddress is a
IP multicast address. IP multicast address is a Class D
address i.e first four bits of the address are 1110.
getHostName
public String getHostName()
Returns the fully qualified host name for this address.
If the host is equal to null, then this address refers to any
of the local machine's available network addresses.
Returns:
the fully qualified host name for this address.
getAddress
public byte[] getAddress()
Returns the raw IP address of this InetAddress
object. The result is in network byte order: the highest order
byte of the address is in getAddress()[0].
Returns:
the raw IP address of this object.
getHostAddress
public String getHostAddress()
Returns the IP address string "%d.%d.%d.%d"
Returns:
raw IP address in a string format
hashCode
public int hashCode()
Returns a hashcode for this IP address.
Returns:
a hash code value for this IP address.
Overrides:
hashCode in class Object
equals
public boolean equals(Object obj)
Compares this object against the specified object.
The result is true if and only if the argument is
not null and it represents the same IP address as
this object.
Two instances of InetAddress represent the same IP
address if the length of the byte arrays returned by
getAddress is the same for both, and each of the
array components is the same for the byte arrays.
Parameters:
obj - the object to compare against.
Returns:
true if the objects are the same;
false otherwise.
Overrides:
equals in class Object
See Also:
getAddress
toString
public String toString()
Converts this IP address to a String.
Returns:
a string representation of this IP address.
Overrides:
toString in class Object
getByName
public static InetAddress getByName(String host) throws UnknownHostException
Determines the IP address of a host, given the host's name. The
host name can either be a machine name, such as
"java.sun.com", or a string representing its IP
address, such as "206.26.48.100".
Parameters:
host - the specified host, or null for the
local host.
Returns:
an IP address for the given host name.
Throws: UnknownHostException
if no IP address for the
host could be found.
getAllByName
public static InetAddress[] getAllByName(String host) throws UnknownHostException
Determines all the IP addresses of a host, given the host's name.
The host name can either be a machine name, such as
"java.sun.com", or a string representing
its IP address, such as "206.26.48.100".
Parameters:
host - the name of the host.
Returns:
an array of all the IP addresses for a given host name.
Throws: UnknownHostException
if no IP address for the
host could be found.
getLocalHost
public static InetAddress getLocalHost() throws UnknownHostException
Returns the local host.
Returns:
the IP address of the local host.
Throws: UnknownHostException
if no IP address for the
host could be found.
