Class UnixSocketAddress

java.lang.Object

java.net.SocketAddress

jnr.unixsocket.UnixSocketAddress

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class UnixSocketAddress
extends SocketAddress

This class represents an AF_UNIX-style socket address. On Linux, it supports the platform-specific abstract name space.

Using an abstract name space is denoted by the socket path starting with a NUL byte. Sockets in abstract name space have no entry in the file system. When linux performs autobind, it constructs the resulting path with a leading NUL, followed by a unique 5-digit hexadecimal number.

Method Detail

path

public String path()

Retrieves the path.

Returns:

The path of this AF_UNIX address. Note: On Linux, can contain a leading NUL byte, if this address resides in abstract namespace.

humanReadablePath

public String humanReadablePath()

Returns a human readable path. On Linux, AF_UNIX sockets can be bound/connected in abstract namespace. This is denoted by a leading NUL byte in the path. In order to be properly displayed, this method returns a path prefixed by '@' like netstat, lsof an similar tools.

Returns:

The human readable path of this address.

toString

public String toString()

Retrieves a human readable description of this address.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

The human readable description of this address.

equals

public boolean equals(Object _other)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object
