SNIHostName

SNIHostName

SNIHostName (String hostname)

Creates an SNIHostName using the specified hostname.

Note that per RFC 6066, the encoded server name value of a hostname is US_ASCII-compliant. In this method, hostname can be a user-friendly Internationalized Domain Name (IDN). toASCII(String, int) is used to enforce the restrictions on ASCII characters in hostnames (see RFC 3490, RFC 1122, RFC 1123) and translate the hostname into ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE), as:

     IDN.toASCII(hostname, IDN.USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES);
 

The hostname argument is illegal if it:

• hostname is empty,
• hostname ends with a trailing dot,
• hostname is not a valid Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) compliant with the RFC 3490 specification.

Parameters
hostname	String: the hostname of this server name

Throws
NullPointerException	if hostname is null
IllegalArgumentException	if hostname is illegal

SNIHostName

SNIHostName (byte[] encoded)

Creates an SNIHostName using the specified encoded value.

This method is normally used to parse the encoded name value in a requested SNI extension.

Per RFC 6066, the encoded name value of a hostname is US_ASCII-compliant. However, in the previous version of the SNI extension ( RFC 4366), the encoded hostname is represented as a byte string using UTF-8 encoding. For the purpose of version tolerance, this method allows that the charset of encoded argument can be UTF_8, as well as US_ASCII. toASCII(String) is used to translate the encoded argument into ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE) hostname.

It is strongly recommended that this constructor is only used to parse the encoded name value in a requested SNI extension. Otherwise, to comply with RFC 6066, please always use US_ASCII-compliant charset and enforce the restrictions on ASCII characters in hostnames (see RFC 3490, RFC 1122, RFC 1123) for encoded argument, or use SNIHostName(String) instead.

The encoded argument is illegal if it:

• encoded is empty,
• encoded ends with a trailing dot,
• encoded is not encoded in US_ASCII or UTF_8-compliant charset,
• encoded is not a valid Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) compliant with the RFC 3490 specification.

Note that the encoded byte array is cloned to protect against subsequent modification.

Parameters
encoded	byte: the encoded hostname of this server name

Throws
NullPointerException	if encoded is null
IllegalArgumentException	if encoded is illegal

createSNIMatcher

SNIMatcher createSNIMatcher (String regex)

Creates an SNIMatcher object for SNIHostNames.

This method can be used by a server to verify the acceptable SNIHostNames. For example,

     SNIMatcher matcher =
         SNIHostName.createSNIMatcher("www\\.example\\.com");
 

will accept the hostname "www.example.com".

     SNIMatcher matcher =
         SNIHostName.createSNIMatcher("www\\.example\\.(com|org)");
 

will accept hostnames "www.example.com" and "www.example.org".

Parameters
regex	String: the regular expression pattern representing the hostname(s) to match

Returns
SNIMatcher	a SNIMatcher object for SNIHostNames

Throws
NullPointerException	if regex is null
PatternSyntaxException	if the regular expression's syntax is invalid

equals

boolean equals (Object other)

Compares this server name to the specified object.

Per RFC 6066, DNS hostnames are case-insensitive. Two server hostnames are equal if, and only if, they have the same name type, and the hostnames are equal in a case-independent comparison.

Parameters
other	Object: the other server name object to compare with.

Returns
boolean	true if, and only if, the other is considered equal to this instance

getAsciiName

String getAsciiName ()

Returns the US_ASCII-compliant hostname of this SNIHostName object.

Note that, per RFC 6066, the returned hostname may be an internationalized domain name that contains A-labels. See RFC 5890 for more information about the detailed A-label specification.

Returns
String	the US_ASCII-compliant hostname of this SNIHostName object

hashCode

int hashCode ()

Returns a hash code value for this SNIHostName.

The hash code value is generated using the case-insensitive hostname of this SNIHostName.

Returns
int	a hash code value for this SNIHostName.

toString

String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object, including the DNS hostname in this SNIHostName object.

The exact details of the representation are unspecified and subject to change, but the following may be regarded as typical:

     "type=host_name (0), value=<hostname>"
 

The "<hostname>" is an ASCII representation of the hostname, which may contains A-labels. For example, a returned value of an pseudo hostname may look like:

     "type=host_name (0), value=www.example.com"
 

or

     "type=host_name (0), value=xn--fsqu00a.xn--0zwm56d"
 

Please NOTE that the exact details of the representation are unspecified and subject to change.

Returns
String	a string representation of the object.
