- public class BinaryRefAddr
- extends RefAddr
The BinaryRefAddr class represents a communications end-point.
It consists of a type that describes the communication mechanism
and an opaque buffer containing the address description
specific to that communication mechanism. The format and interpretation of
the address type and the contents of the opaque buffer are based on
the agreement of three parties: the client that uses the address,
the object/server that can be reached using the address,
and the administrator or program that creates the address.
An example of a binary reference address is an BER X.500 presentation address.
Another example of a binary reference address is a serialized form of
a service's object handle.
A binary reference address is immutable in the sense that its fields
once created, cannot be replaced. However, it is possible to access
the byte array used to hold the opaque buffer. Programs are strongly
recommended against changing this byte array. Changes to this
byte array need to be explicitly synchronized.
The serialized form of a BinaryRefAddr object consists of its type
name String and a byte array containing its "contents".

- RefAddr, StringRefAddr
-
BinaryRefAddr(String, byte[])
- Constructs a new instance of BinaryRefAddr using its address type and a byte
array for contents.
-
BinaryRefAddr(String, byte[], int, int)
- Constructs a new instance of BinaryRefAddr using its address type and
a region of a byte array for contents.
-
equals(Object)
- Determines whether obj is equal to this address.
-
getContent()
- Retrieves the contents of this address as an Object.
-
hashCode()
- Computes the hash code of this address using its address type and contents.
-
toString()
- Generates the string representation of this address.
BinaryRefAddr
public BinaryRefAddr(String addrType,
byte src[])
- Constructs a new instance of BinaryRefAddr using its address type and a byte
array for contents.
- Parameters:
- addrType - A non-null string describing the type of the address.
- src - The non-null contents of the address as a byte array.
The contents of src is copied into the new BinaryRefAddr.
BinaryRefAddr
public BinaryRefAddr(String addrType,
byte src[],
int offset,
int count)
- Constructs a new instance of BinaryRefAddr using its address type and
a region of a byte array for contents.
- Parameters:
- addrType - A non-null string describing the type of the address.
- src - The non-null contents of the address as a byte array.
The contents of src is copied into the new BinaryRefAddr.
- offset - The starting index in src to get the bytes.
0 <= offset <= src.length.
- count - The number of bytes to extract from src.
0 <= count <= src.length-offset.
getContent
public Object getContent()
- Retrieves the contents of this address as an Object.
The result is a byte array.
Changes to this array will affect this BinaryRefAddr's contents.
Programs are recommended against changing this array's contents
and to lock the buffer if they need to change it.
- Returns:
- The non-null buffer containing this address's contents.
- Overrides:
- getContent in class RefAddr
equals
public boolean equals(Object obj)
- Determines whether obj is equal to this address. It is equal if
it contains the same address type and their contents are byte-wise
equivalent.
- Parameters:
- obj - The possibly null object to check.
- Returns:
- true if the object is equal; false otherwise.
- Overrides:
- equals in class RefAddr
hashCode
public int hashCode()
- Computes the hash code of this address using its address type and contents.
Two BinaryRefAddrs have the same hash code if they have
the same address type and the same contents.
It is also possible for different BinaryRefAddrs to have
the same hash code.
- Returns:
- The hash code of this address as an int.
- Overrides:
- hashCode in class RefAddr
toString
public String toString()
- Generates the string representation of this address.
The string consists of the address's type and contents with labels.
The first 32 bytes of contents are displayed (in hexadecimal).
If there are more than 32 bytes, "..." is used to indicate more.
This string is meant to used for debugging purposes and not
meant to be interpreted programmatically.
- Returns:
- The non-null string representation of this address.
- Overrides:
- toString in class RefAddr
