Method Detail

getHostName

public static String getHostName(InetAddress address)

This method tries to determine the hostname of the given InetAddress without triggering a reverse DNS lookup. InetAddress.getHostName() triggers a reverse DNS lookup which can be very costly in cases where reverse DNS fails. Tries to parse a symbolic hostname from InetAddress.toString(), which is documented to return a String of the form "hostname / literal IP address" with 'hostname' blank if not already computed & stored in address If the hostname cannot be determined from InetAddress.toString(), the value of InetAddress.getHostAddress() is returned.

Parameters:

address - The InetAddress whose hostname has to be determined

Returns:

hostsname, if it can be determined. hostaddress, if not. TODO: We may introduce a System property or some other method of configuration TODO: which will specify whether to allow reverse DNS lookup or not

getDestinationEPR

public static org.apache.axis2.addressing.EndpointReference getDestinationEPR(org.apache.axis2.context.MessageContext msgContext)

Get the EPR for the message passed in

Parameters:

msgContext - the message context

Returns:

the destination EPR

getOMOutputFormat

public static org.apache.axiom.om.OMOutputFormat getOMOutputFormat(org.apache.axis2.context.MessageContext msgContext)

Retirn the OMOutputFormat to be used for the message context passed in

Parameters:

msgContext - the message context

Returns:

the OMOutputFormat to be used

getContentType

public static String getContentType(org.apache.axis2.context.MessageContext msgContext)

Get the content type for the message passed in

Parameters:

msgContext - the message

Returns:

content type of the message
