Summary

public class  NodeAddress
     extends java.lang.Object
{
          // Constructors 1
     private NodeAddress();

          // Methods 3
     public static int fromString(String) throws Exception;
     public static final boolean multicast(int);
     public static final String toString(int);

}

Routines for manipulating node addresses. A node address is simply a 32 bit integer for efficiency, but these convenience routines exist to convert to and from printed representations and so on.

This is just here (in Janos) for compatiblity. All the functions are in the core.
