IpPrefix

public final class IpPrefix
extends Object implements Parcelable

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.net.IpPrefix


This class represents an IP prefix, i.e., a contiguous block of IP addresses aligned on a power of two boundary (also known as an "IP subnet"). A prefix is specified by two pieces of information:

For example, the prefix 192.0.2.0/24 covers the 256 IPv4 addresses from 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255, inclusive, and the prefix 2001:db8:1:2 covers the 2^64 IPv6 addresses from 2001:db8:1:2:: to 2001:db8:1:2:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff, inclusive. Objects of this class are immutable.

Summary

Inherited constants

From interface android.os.Parcelable

Fields

public static final Creator<IpPrefix> CREATOR

Implement the Parcelable interface.

Public methods

boolean contains(InetAddress address)

Determines whether the prefix contains the specified address.

int describeContents()

Implement the Parcelable interface.

boolean equals(Object obj)

Compares this IpPrefix object against the specified object in obj.

InetAddress getAddress()

Returns a copy of the first IP address in the prefix.

int getPrefixLength()

Returns the prefix length of this IpPrefix.

byte[] getRawAddress()

Returns a copy of the IP address bytes in network order (the highest order byte is the zeroth element).

int hashCode()

Gets the hashcode of the represented IP prefix.

String toString()

Returns a string representation of this IpPrefix.

void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)

Fields

CREATOR

Added in API level 21
Creator<IpPrefix> CREATOR

Implement the Parcelable interface.

Public methods

contains

Added in API level 23
boolean contains (InetAddress address)

Determines whether the prefix contains the specified address.

Parameters
address InetAddress: An InetAddress to test.
Returns
boolean true if the prefix covers the given address.

describeContents

Added in API level 21
int describeContents ()

Implement the Parcelable interface.

Returns
int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance.

equals

Added in API level 21
boolean equals (Object obj)

Compares this IpPrefix object against the specified object in obj. Two objects are equal if they have the same startAddress and prefixLength.

Parameters
obj Object: the object to be tested for equality.
Returns
boolean true if both objects are equal, false otherwise.

getAddress

Added in API level 21
InetAddress getAddress ()

Returns a copy of the first IP address in the prefix. Modifying the returned object does not change this object's contents.

Returns
InetAddress the address in the form of a byte array.

getPrefixLength

Added in API level 21
int getPrefixLength ()

Returns the prefix length of this IpPrefix.

Returns
int the prefix length.

getRawAddress

Added in API level 21
byte[] getRawAddress ()

Returns a copy of the IP address bytes in network order (the highest order byte is the zeroth element). Modifying the returned array does not change this object's contents.

Returns
byte[] the address in the form of a byte array.

hashCode

Added in API level 21
int hashCode ()

Gets the hashcode of the represented IP prefix.

Returns
int the appropriate hashcode value.

toString

Added in API level 21
String toString ()

Returns a string representation of this IpPrefix.

Returns
String a string such as "192.0.2.0/24" or "2001:db8:1:2::/64".

writeToParcel

Added in API level 21
void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, 
                int flags)

Implement the Parcelable interface.

Parameters
dest Parcel: The Parcel in which the object should be written.
flags int: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE.

Hooray!
