Hostname (LDK Java Bindings and Binaries 0.0.117.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.ldk.structs.Hostname

```
public class Hostname
extends Object
```
Represents a hostname for serialization purposes. Only the character set and length will be validated. The character set consists of ASCII alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and periods. Its length is guaranteed to be representable by a single byte. This serialization is used by [`BOLT 7`] hostnames. [`BOLT 7`]: https://github.com/lightning/bolts/blob/master/07-routing-gossip.md

Method Summary

All Methods Static Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`Hostname`	`clone()`	Creates a copy of the Hostname
`boolean`	`eq(Hostname b)`	Checks if two Hostnames contain equal inner contents.
`boolean`	`equals(Object o)`
`protected void`	`finalize()`
`byte`	`len()`	Returns the length of the hostname.
`static Result_HostnameDecodeErrorZ`	`read(byte[] ser)`	Read a Hostname from a byte array, created by Hostname_write
`byte[]`	`write()`	Serialize the Hostname object into a byte array which can be read by Hostname_read

- Method Detail
  - finalize
```
protected void finalize()
                 throws Throwable
```
    Overrides:
    
    finalize in class Object
    
    Throws:
    
    Throwable
  - clone
```
public Hostname clone()
```
    Creates a copy of the Hostname
    
    Overrides:
    
    clone in class Object
  - eq
```
public boolean eq(Hostname b)
```
    Checks if two Hostnames contain equal inner contents. This ignores pointers and is_owned flags and looks at the values in fields. Two objects with NULL inner values will be considered "equal" here.
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object o)
```
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
  - len
```
public byte len()
```
    Returns the length of the hostname.
  - write
```
public byte[] write()
```
    Serialize the Hostname object into a byte array which can be read by Hostname_read
  - read
```
public static Result_HostnameDecodeErrorZ read(byte[] ser)
```
    Read a Hostname from a byte array, created by Hostname_write
