Class ICMPv6Type

java.lang.Object

com.h3c.util.cache.CacheableDataType

com.h3c.util.ip.ICMPv6Type

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ICMPv6Type>

public final class ICMPv6Type
extends CacheableDataType
implements Comparable<ICMPv6Type>

Represents an ICMPv6 message type.

All constructors for this class are private. Creating instances of ICMPv6Type is done via the static methods on the class.

Instances of this class are immutable, making them inherently threadsafe.

This class overrides equals(java.lang.Object) and hashCode() so that instances play nicely with the Collection classes.

This class implements the Comparable interface to ensure that a sorted list of types is presented in an intuitive order.

Field Detail

NBR_SOL

public static final ICMPv6Type NBR_SOL

The instance representing Neighbor Solicitation.

NBR_ADV

public static final ICMPv6Type NBR_ADV

The instance representing Neighbor Advertisement.

Method Detail

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representing the ICMPv6 message type.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

the message type code and name

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Returns the description of the ICMPv6 message type. E.g. "DEST_UNR : Destination unreachable"

Returns:

the description

getName

public String getName()

Returns the (short) name of the message type. E.g. "DEST_UNR"

Returns:

the (short) name

getCode

public int getCode()

Returns the ICMPv6 message type code.

Returns:

the message type code

isUnknown

public boolean isUnknown()

Returns true if the message type code is not one of the "named" types. More specifically, the type is not defined in the icmpv6Type resource bundle.

Returns:

true if unknown

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

compareTo

public int compareTo(ICMPv6Type o)

Implements the Comparable interface, to return ICMPv6 message types in natural order.

Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable<ICMPv6Type>

Parameters:

o - the other ICMPv6 message type instance

Returns:

an integer value indicating relative ordering

See Also:

Comparable.compareTo(T)

valueOf

public static ICMPv6Type valueOf(String value)

Returns an object that represents the value of the ICMPv6 message type identified by the specified string. For example:

   ICMPv6Type rs = ICMPv6Type.valueOf("rtr_sol");
   String s = rs.getDescription(); // "RTR_SOL : Router Solicitation"
   ICMPv6Type rsAlso = ICMPv6Type.valueOf(s);
   assert rsAlso.equals(rs);
 

Parameters:

value - the message type identifier

Returns:

an object representing the specified message type

valueOf

public static ICMPv6Type valueOf(int typeCode)

Returns an object that represents the value of the ICMPv6 message type identified by the specified type code.

Parameters:

typeCode - the ICMPv6 message type code

Returns:

an object representing the specified protocol

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the parameter is < 0 or > 255
