Detailed Description

Define Documentation

#define 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 htons() function instead.

Definition at line 1077 of file uip.h.

#define ntohs   htons

Definition at line 1094 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ip6addr (   addr,
  addr0,
  addr1,
  addr2,
  addr3,
  addr4,
  addr5,
  addr6,
  addr7 
)

Construct an IPv6 address from eight 16-bit words.

This function constructs an IPv6 address.

Definition at line 859 of file uip.h.

#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, HTONS(80));
Parameters:
addr A pointer to a uip_ipaddr_t variable that will be filled in with the IP address.
addr0 The first octet of the IP address.
addr1 The second octet of the IP address.
addr2 The third octet of the IP address.
addr3 The forth octet of the IP address.

Definition at line 847 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr1 (   addr  ) 

Pick the first octet of an IP address.

Picks out the first octet of an IP address.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr;
 u8_t octet;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr, 1,2,3,4);
 octet = uip_ipaddr1(&ipaddr);

In the example above, the variable "octet" will contain the value 1.

Definition at line 1002 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr2 (   addr  ) 

Pick the second octet of an IP address.

Picks out the second octet of an IP address.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr;
 u8_t octet;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr, 1,2,3,4);
 octet = uip_ipaddr2(&ipaddr);

In the example above, the variable "octet" will contain the value 2.

Definition at line 1022 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr3 (   addr  ) 

Pick the third octet of an IP address.

Picks out the third octet of an IP address.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr;
 u8_t octet;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr, 1,2,3,4);
 octet = uip_ipaddr3(&ipaddr);

In the example above, the variable "octet" will contain the value 3.

Definition at line 1042 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr4 (   addr  ) 

Pick the fourth octet of an IP address.

Picks out the fourth octet of an IP address.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr;
 u8_t octet;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr, 1,2,3,4);
 octet = uip_ipaddr4(&ipaddr);

In the example above, the variable "octet" will contain the value 4.

Definition at line 1062 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr_cmp (   addr1,
  addr2 
)

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:
addr1 The first IP address.
addr2 The second IP address.

Definition at line 918 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr_copy (   dest,
  src 
)

Copy an IP address to another IP address.

Copies an IP address from one place to another.

Example:

 uip_ipaddr_t ipaddr1, ipaddr2;

 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr1, 192,16,1,2);
 uip_ipaddr_copy(&ipaddr2, &ipaddr1);
Parameters:
dest The destination for the copy.
src The source from where to copy.

Definition at line 889 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr_mask (   dest,
  src,
  mask 
)

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:
dest Where the result is to be placed.
src The IP address.
mask The netmask.

Definition at line 979 of file uip.h.

#define uip_ipaddr_maskcmp (   addr1,
  addr2,
  mask 
)

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);
 uip_ipaddr(&ipaddr2, 192,16,1,3);
 if(uip_ipaddr_maskcmp(&ipaddr1, &ipaddr2, &mask)) {
    printf("They are the same");
 }
Parameters:
addr1 The first IP address.
addr2 The second IP address.
mask The netmask.

Function Documentation

u16_t htons ( u16_t  val  ) 

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

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

Definition at line 1901 of file uip.c.

unsigned char uiplib_ipaddrconv ( char *  addrstr,
unsigned char *  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 and converts it into a 4-byte array that can be used by other uIP functions.

Parameters:
addrstr A pointer to a string containing the IP address in textual form.
addr A pointer to a 4-byte array that will be filled in with the numerical representation of the address.
Return values:
0 If the IP address could not be parsed.
Non-zero If the IP address was parsed.
