WifiAwareNetworkInfo


class WifiAwareNetworkInfo : TransportInfo, Parcelable
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.net.wifi.aware.WifiAwareNetworkInfo

Wi-Fi Aware-specific network information. The information can be extracted from the android.net.NetworkCapabilities of the network using NetworkCapabilities#getTransportInfo(). The NetworkCapabilities is provided by the connectivity service to apps, e.g. received through the android.net.ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback#onCapabilitiesChanged(android.net.Network, * android.net.NetworkCapabilities) callback.

The Wi-Fi Aware-specific network information include the peer's scoped link-local IPv6 address for the Wi-Fi Aware link, as well as (optionally) the port and transport protocol specified by the peer. The scoped link-local IPv6, port, and transport protocol can then be used to create a java.net.Socket connection to the peer.

Note: these are the peer's IPv6 and port information - not the local device's!

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 29
fun describeContents(): Int
Return
Int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or android.os.Parcelable#CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

getChannelInfoList

Added in API level 33
fun getChannelInfoList(): MutableList<WifiAwareChannelInfo!>

Get a list WifiAwareChannelInfo which is used by this Aware data-path

Return
MutableList<WifiAwareChannelInfo!> A list of WifiAwareChannelInfo This value cannot be null.

getPeerIpv6Addr

Added in API level 29
fun getPeerIpv6Addr(): Inet6Address?

Get the scoped link-local IPv6 address of the Wi-Fi Aware peer (not of the local device!).

Return
Inet6Address? An IPv6 address. This value may be null.

getPort

Added in API level 29
fun getPort(): Int

Get the port number to be used to create a network connection to the Wi-Fi Aware peer. The port information is provided by the app running on the peer which requested the connection, using the WifiAwareNetworkSpecifier.Builder#setPort(int).

Return
Int A port number on the peer. A value of 0 indicates that no port was specified by the peer.

getTransportProtocol

Added in API level 29
fun getTransportProtocol(): Int

Get the transport protocol to be used to communicate over a network connection to the Wi-Fi Aware peer. The transport protocol is provided by the app running on the peer which requested the connection, using the WifiAwareNetworkSpecifier.Builder#setTransportProtocol(int).

The transport protocol number is assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) https://www.iana.org/assignments/protocol-numbers/protocol-numbers.xhtml.

Return
Int A transport protocol id. A value of -1 indicates that no transport protocol was specified by the peer.

toString

Added in API level 29
fun toString(): String
Return
String a string representation of the object.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 29
fun writeToParcel(
    dest: Parcel,
    flags: Int
): Unit
Parameters
dest Parcel: The Parcel in which the object should be written. This value cannot be null.
flags Int: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE. Value is either 0 or a combination of android.os.Parcelable#PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE, and android.os.Parcelable.PARCELABLE_ELIDE_DUPLICATES

Properties

CREATOR
