Define Documentation

#define UIP_HTONS (   n)

Convert 16-bit quantity from host byte order to network byte order.

This macro is primarily used for converting constants from host byte order to network byte order. For converting variables to network byte order, use the uip_htons() function instead.

Examples:
example-program.c, and example-psock-server.c.

#define uip_ipaddr (   addr,
  addr0,
  addr1,
  addr2,
  addr3 
)

Construct an IP address from four bytes.

This function constructs an IP address of the type that uIP handles internally from four bytes. The function is handy for specifying IP addresses to use with e.g. the uip_connect() function.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr;
 struct uip_conn *c;
 
 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr, 192,168,1,2);
 c = uip_connect(&ipaddr, UIP_HTONS(80));
Parameters:
addrA pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable that will be filled in with the IP address.
addr0The first octet of the IP address.
addr1The second octet of the IP address.
addr2The third octet of the IP address.
addr3The forth octet of the IP address.

)

Compare two IP addresses.

Compares two IP addresses.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr1, ipaddr2;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr1, 192,16,1,2);
 if(uip_ipaddr_cmp(&ipaddr2, &ipaddr1)) {
  printf("They are the same");
 }
Parameters:
addr1The first IP address.
addr2The second IP address.

Copy an IP address from one place to another.

Copies an IP address from one place to another.

#define uip_ipaddr_mask (   dest,

)

Check if an address is a broadcast address for a network.

Checks if an address is the broadcast address for a network. The network is defined by an IP address that is on the network and the network's netmask.

Parameters:
addrThe IP address.
netaddrThe network's IP address.
netmaskThe network's netmask. Mask out the network part of an IP address.

Masks out the network part of an IP address, given the address and the netmask.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr1, ipaddr2, netmask;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr1, 192,16,1,2);
 uip_ipaddr(&netmask, 255,255,255,0);
 uip_ipaddr_mask(&ipaddr2, &ipaddr1, &netmask);

In the example above, the variable "ipaddr2" will contain the IP address 192.168.1.0.

Parameters:
destWhere the result is to be placed.
srcThe IP address.
maskThe netmask.

#define uip_ipaddr_maskcmp (   addr1,

Compare two IP addresses with netmasks.

Compares two IP addresses with netmasks. The masks are used to mask out the bits that are to be compared.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr1, ipaddr2, mask;

 uip_ipaddr(&mask, 255,255,255,0);
 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr1, 192,16,1,2);

CCIF int uiplib_ipaddrconv ( const char *  addrstr,
uip_ipaddr_t addr 
)

Convert a textual representation of an IP address to a numerical representation.

This function takes a textual representation of an IP address in the form a.b.c.d for IPv4 or a:b:c:d:e:f:g:h for IPv6 and converts it into a numeric IP address representation that can be used by other uIP functions.

Parameters:
addrstrA pointer to a string containing the IP address in textual form.
addrA pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t that will be filled in with the numerical representation of the address.
Return values:
0If the IP address could not be parsed.
Non-zeroIf the IP address was parsed.
