Method Detail

ipStringToBytes

@Nullable
public static byte[] ipStringToBytes(java.lang.String ipString)

Returns the InetAddress.getAddress() having the given string representation or null if unable to parse.

This deliberately avoids all nameservice lookups (e.g. no DNS).

This is the same as com.google.common.net.InetAddresses.ipStringToBytes(), except internally Splitter isn't used (as that would introduce more dependencies).

Parameters:

ipString - String containing an IPv4 or IPv6 string literal, e.g. "192.168.0.1" or "2001:db8::1"
