Member Function Documentation

bool PrefixRoute::matches

(

const Bundle &

b

)

const [virtual]

Test the appropriateness of this route for a Bundle.

In general, this will depend on the specific subtype of Route. For example, a prefix routing algorithm will look at the Bundle's destination and see if the route is configured with a prefix of that destination.

Parameters:

b

A bundle to forward

Returns:

whether this route is appropriate for b

Implements DTN::Route.
