Method Detail

getLocalInterfaces

public static java.util.Set<java.net.InetAddress> getLocalInterfaces()

Retrieve the set of InetAddress's to which the current host responds.

Returns:

the set of InetAddress's to which the current host responds.

getLocalHostName

public static java.lang.String getLocalHostName()

Gets the name of the local host.

Returns:

local host name

getLoopbackAddress

public static java.net.InetAddress getLoopbackAddress()

Return the local host's loopback address.

Returns:

the loopback address for the local host

formatHostAddress

public static java.lang.String formatHostAddress(java.net.SocketAddress address)

Return a string representation of a SocketAddress.

We could just use the toString() of the address, but it doesn't seem to know to leave out the delimiter between the always-empty hostname and the IP Address which is distracting to look at.

Parameters:

address - the address to format

Returns:

another string representation of address.

networkToHostOrder

public static short networkToHostOrder(short network)

iPAddressToUInt

public static int iPAddressToUInt(java.net.InetAddress ipAddress)

iPAddressFromUInt

public static java.net.InetAddress iPAddressFromUInt(int ipAddr)
                                              throws java.net.UnknownHostException

Throws:

java.net.UnknownHostException

networkToHostOrder

public static int networkToHostOrder(int network)

hostToNetworkOrder

public static short hostToNetworkOrder(short host)

hostToNetworkOrder

public static int hostToNetworkOrder(int host)
