44 /** \brief Ethernet MAC address
46 The Ethernet MAC is modelled as a fixed-size container/sequence of 6 bytes.
48 The following statements all create the same MAC address <code>00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5F</code>
50 // Used to construct constant MAC addresses
51 MACAddress(0x001A2B3C4D5Flu)
53 // Construct a MAC address from it's string representation:
54 MACAddress::from_string("00:1a:2b:3c:4d:5f") // case is ignored
55 MACAddress::from_string("00-1A-2B-3C-4D-5F") // '-' as separator is allowed too
57 // Construct a MAC address from raw data. 'from_data' takes an arbitrary iterator (e.g. a
58 // pointer) as argument. Here we use a fixed array but normally you will need this to build
59 // a MAC address in a packet parser
60 char rawBytes[] = { 0x00, 0x1A, 0x2B, 0x3C, 0x4D, 0x5F };
61 MACAddress::from_data(rawBytes)
63 // Construct a MAC from the EUID64 as used by INet6 interfaces. The eui64 will come from an
65 MACAddress::from_eui64(0x001A2BFFFE3C4D5Ful)
66 MACAddress::from_eui64(
67 INet6Address(0x2001u,0xDB8u,0x1u,0x0u,0x001Au,0x2BFFu,0xFE3Cu,0x3D5Fu).id())
70 Since MACAddress is based on \c boo Ziel, aber nur ein paar davon sind standardkomform.
72 Der aktuelle C++ Standard unterstützt drei verschiedene Möglichkeiten eine Zahl in einen String umzuwandeln. Diese Möglichkeiten sind:
77 st::array, you can access the raw data bytes of the
78 address using \c begin(), \c end() or \c operator[]:
81 Packet::iterator i = ...;
83 std::copy(mac.begin(), mac.end(), i); // Copies 6 bytes
86 \implementation We awkwardly need to use static named constructors (<tt>from_</tt> members)
87 instead of ordinarily overloaded constructors for one simple reason: <tt>char *</tt>
88 doubles as string literal and as arbitrary data iterator. The iterator constructor can
89 therefore not be distinguished from initialization with a string literal. Therefore we
90 need to disambiguate using the named constructors.
