URIHelpers.Hostname

URIHelpers.Hostname

Class Declaration

 Public Class Hostname

Remarks

This class represents the hostname or IP address of the URL. IP addresses can be in IPv4 or IPv6 format. file:// URLs do not include a host name or IP.

Subdomain ordering

An Internet domain name is read from right to left, with the right-most name part being the zeroth subdomain (AKA, the top-level domain, or TLD) and the left-most part being at SubDomainCount-1.

For example, the domain name www.example.com would be represented as:

SubDomain(0) = "com"     ' TLD
SubDomain(1) = "example" ' domain name
SubDomain(2) = "www"     ' subdomain

If the URL uses an IP address instead of a domain name then the address is stored entirely at SubDomain(0):

SubDomain(0) = "192.168.1.1"                                ' IPv4
 ' OR
SubDomain(0) = "[FEDC:BA98:7654:3210:FEDC:BA98:7654:3211]"  ' IPv6
