java.lang.Object

Direct Known Subclasses:

Enclosing class:

UNetwork

public static class UNetwork.s_sockaddr
extends java.lang.Object

Java version of C struct sockaddr.

It would be natural to use the sa_family field in the superclass instead of the individually-named fields in each subclass, but the C structures do have the individually-named fields. In C, of course, this is no problem, and either field could be used, with an appropriate cast. In Java, the field sa_family in s_sockaddr is never used, so given an object, the field can't be used as a discriminant. Instead, if you don't know the address family, use the getClass method to see what it is, or use the Jtux virtual method get_family().
