Class Counter32

java.lang.Object

org.snmp4j.smi.AbstractVariable

org.snmp4j.smi.UnsignedInteger32

org.snmp4j.smi.Counter32

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<Variable>, BERSerializable, AssignableFromLong, AssignableFromString, Variable

public class Counter32
extends UnsignedInteger32

The Counter32 class allows all the functionality of unsigned integers but is recognized as a distinct SMI type, which is used for monotonically increasing values that wrap around at 2^32-1 (4294967295).

1.0

Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Specified by:

equals in interface Variable

Overrides:

equals in class UnsignedInteger32

getSyntax

public int getSyntax()

Description copied from class: AbstractVariable

Gets the ASN.1 syntax identifier value of this SNMP variable.

Specified by:

getSyntax in interface Variable

Overrides:

getSyntax in class UnsignedInteger32

Returns:

an integer value less than 128 for regular SMI objects and a value greater or equal than 128 for exception values like noSuchObject, noSuchInstance, and endOfMibView.

encodeBER

public void encodeBER(OutputStream outputStream)
               throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractVariable

Encodes a Variable to an OutputStream.

Specified by:

encodeBER in interface BERSerializable

Overrides:

encodeBER in class UnsignedInteger32

Parameters:

outputStream - an OutputStream.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while writing to the stream.

decodeBER

public void decodeBER(BERInputStream inputStream)
               throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractVariable

Decodes a Variable from an BERInputStream.

Specified by:

decodeBER in interface BERSerializable

Overrides:

decodeBER in class UnsignedInteger32

Parameters:

inputStream - an BERInputStream containing a BER encoded byte stream.

Throws:

IOException - if the stream could not be decoded by using BER rules.

clone

public Object clone()

Description copied from interface: Variable

Clones this variable. Cloning can be used by the SNMP4J API to better support concurrency by creating a clone for internal processing. The content of this object is independent to the content of the clone. Thus, changes to the clone will have no effect to this object.

Specified by:

clone in interface Variable

Overrides:

clone in class UnsignedInteger32

Returns:

a new instance of this Variable with the same value.

increment

public void increment()

Increment the value of the counter by one. If the current value is 2^32-1 (4294967295) then value will be set to zero.

increment

public long increment(long increment)

Increment the value by more than one in one step.

Parameters:

increment - an increment value greater than zero.

Returns:

the current value of the counter.

Since:

2.4.2

toSubIndex

public OID toSubIndex(boolean impliedLength)

Description copied from class: AbstractVariable

Converts the value of this Variable to a (sub-)index value.

Specified by:

toSubIndex in interface Variable

Overrides:

toSubIndex in class UnsignedInteger32

Parameters:

impliedLength - specifies if the sub-index has an implied length. This parameter applies to variable length variables only (e.g. OctetString and OID). For other variables it has no effect.

Returns:

an OID that represents this value as an (sub-)index.

fromSubIndex

public void fromSubIndex(OID subIndex,
                         boolean impliedLength)

Description copied from class: AbstractVariable

Sets the value of this Variable from the supplied (sub-)index.

Specified by:

fromSubIndex in interface Variable

Overrides:

fromSubIndex in class UnsignedInteger32

Parameters:

subIndex - the sub-index OID.

impliedLength - specifies if the sub-index has an implied length. This parameter applies to variable length variables only (e.g. OctetString and OID). For other variables it has no effect.
