The host to use.

protected final String lcHostname

Since: API Level 1

The lowercase host, for equals(Object) and hashCode().

Public Constructors

public HttpHost (String hostname, int port, String scheme)

Since: API Level 1

Creates a new HttpHost, specifying all values. Constructor for HttpHost.

Parameters
hostname the hostname (IP or DNS name)
port the port number. -1 indicates the scheme default port.
scheme the name of the scheme. null indicates the default scheme

public HttpHost (String hostname, int port)

Since: API Level 1

Creates a new HttpHost, with default scheme.

Parameters
hostname the hostname (IP or DNS name)
port the port number. -1 indicates the scheme default port.

public HttpHost (String hostname)

Since: API Level 1

Creates a new HttpHost, with default scheme and port.

Parameters
hostname the hostname (IP or DNS name)

public HttpHost (HttpHost httphost)

Since: API Level 1

Copy constructor for HttpHost.

Parameters
httphost the HTTP host to copy details from

Public Methods

public Object clone ()

Since: API Level 1

Creates and returns a copy of this Object. The default implementation returns a so-called "shallow" copy: It creates a new instance of the same class and then copies the field values (including object references) from this instance to the new instance. A "deep" copy, in contrast, would also recursively clone nested objects. A subclass that needs to implement this kind of cloning should call super.clone() to create the new instance and then create deep copies of the nested, mutable objects.

Returns
  • a copy of this object.

public boolean equals (Object obj)

Since: API Level 1

Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. In order to be equal, o must represent the same object as this instance using a class-specific comparison. The general contract is that this comparison should be reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. Also, no object reference other than null is equal to null.

The default implementation returns true only if this == o. See Writing a correct equals method if you intend implementing your own equals method.

The general contract for the equals and hashCode() methods is that if equals returns true for any two objects, then hashCode() must return the same value for these objects. This means that subclasses of Object usually override either both methods or neither of them.

Parameters
obj the object to compare this instance with.
Returns
  • true if the specified object is equal to this Object; false otherwise.

public String getHostName ()

Since: API Level 1

Returns the host name.

Returns
  • the host name (IP or DNS name)

public int getPort ()

Since: API Level 1

Returns the port.

Returns
  • the host port, or -1 if not set

public String getSchemeName ()

Since: API Level 1

Returns the scheme name.

Returns
  • the scheme name

public int hashCode ()

Since: API Level 1

Returns an integer hash code for this object. By contract, any two objects for which equals(Object) returns true must return the same hash code value. This means that subclasses of Object usually override both methods or neither method.

Note that hash values must not change over time unless information used in equals comparisons also changes.

See Writing a correct hashCode method if you intend implementing your own hashCode method.

Returns
  • this object's hash code.

public String toHostString ()

Since: API Level 1

Obtains the host string, without scheme prefix.

Returns
  • the host string, for example localhost:8080

public String toString ()

Since: API Level 1

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object. Subclasses are encouraged to override this method and provide an implementation that takes into account the object's type and data. The default implementation is equivalent to the following expression:

   getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())

See Writing a useful toString method if you intend implementing your own toString method.

Returns
  • a printable representation of this object.

public String toURI ()

Since: API Level 1

Return the host URI, as a string.

Returns
  • the host URI
