java.lang.Object
  zeus.concepts.ZeusAddress

All Implemented Interfaces:

Address

public class ZeusAddress

extends java.lang.Object

implements Address

Field Summary

private java.lang.String	host
private java.lang.String	name
private int	port
private java.lang.String	type

Constructor Summary

ZeusAddress(Address addr)

ZeusAddress(java.lang.String name, java.lang.String host, int port, java.lang.String type)

Method Summary

boolean	equals(Address addr) is this the same as another address?
java.lang.String	getHost() getHost returns the name of the host that the agent that has this address is currently present on
java.lang.String	getName() getName returns the name of the agent that has this address
int	getPort() getPort returns the port that is listened to by the transport mechanism for the agent in the case of FIPA-IIOP agents this will generally be "900", as this is the default IIOP port number, FIPA-HTTP agents the port number might be "8080" for instance
java.lang.String	getType() getType is a Zeus specific method, in Zeus it is used to denote "ANS" or "FACILITATOR".
boolean	sameAddress(Address addr) returns true if these two agents share a machine and port - ie. they both live at the same address.... ahhh sweeeet.
void	setName(java.lang.String name) set the name field
void	setType(java.lang.String type) allow the type to be manipulated
java.lang.String	toString() produce a nice string version of the address.

ZeusAddress

public ZeusAddress(java.lang.String name,
                   java.lang.String host,

ZeusAddress

public ZeusAddress(Address addr)

Method Detail

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Description copied from interface: Address

getName returns the name of the agent that has this address

Specified by:

getName in interface Address

getHost

public java.lang.String getHost()

Description copied from interface: Address

getHost returns the name of the host that the agent that has this address is currently present on

Specified by:

getHost in interface Address

getType

public java.lang.String getType()

Description copied from interface: Address

getType is a Zeus specific method, in Zeus it is used to denote "ANS" or "FACILITATOR". Non Zeus agents should be typed as "FIPA-IIOP" or "LEAP" for example. Other types of agent may be implemented if other addressing is used i.e. "LDAP"

Specified by:

getType in interface Address

getPort

public int getPort()

Description copied from interface: Address

getPort returns the port that is listened to by the transport mechanism for the agent in the case of FIPA-IIOP agents this will generally be "900", as this is the default IIOP port number, FIPA-HTTP agents the port number might be "8080" for instance

Specified by:

getPort in interface Address

equals

public boolean equals(Address addr)

Description copied from interface: Address

is this the same as another address? The behaviour should be that if a FIPA-IIOP agent of name X is present on host Y and also there is a FIPA-HTTP X,Y then FIPA-IIOP == FIPA-HTTP (if you follow my thread) However, since the implementation is left to others don't be surprised if this always returns false or something dumb like that...

Specified by:

equals in interface Address

sameAddress

public boolean sameAddress(Address addr)

Description copied from interface: Address

returns true if these two agents share a machine and port - ie. they both live at the same address.... ahhh sweeeet.

Specified by:

sameAddress in interface Address

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from interface: Address

produce a nice string version of the address. The string produced MUST be in a format that can be parsed.

Specified by:

toString in interface Address

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: Address

set the name field

Specified by:

setName in interface Address

setType

public void setType(java.lang.String type)

allow the type to be manipulated

Specified by:

setType in interface Address
