Code Snippets
Following code snippets are very useful for the programmer in coding.
1. Finding the IP Address of the system where the program is running
InetAddress add = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
System.out.println ("The system address: " + add.getHostAddress());
Getting URN from URL (name to address)
InetAddress add = InetAddress.getByName("125.252.226.27");
System.out.println ("My system name: " + add.getHostName());
2. Getting URL from URN (address to name)
InetAddress add = InetAddress.getByName("www.rediff.com");
System.out.println ("Yahoo address in number format : " + add.getHostAddress());
3. To find who is accessing the system
a) When TCP/IP protocol is used
ServerSocket sersock = new ServerSocket(4000);
Socket sock = sersock.accept();
InetAddress add = sock.getInetAddress();
System.out.println(add.getHostAddress() + " on port number " + sock.getPort());
b) When UDP protocol is used
DatagramSocket dsock = null;
DatagramPacket dpack = null;
dsock.receive(dpack);
InetAddress add = dpack.getAddress();
System.out.println(add.getHostAddress() + " on port number " + dpack.getPort());

1. Wrapper classes
2. Listeners
3. Adapters
4. Layout managers
5. Byte streams
6. Character streams
7. Print streams
8. Filter streams
