Method Detail

newInstance

public static DLNAHeader newInstance(DLNAHeader.Type type,
                                     String headerValue)

Create a new instance of a DLNAHeader subtype that matches the given type and value.

This method iterates through all potential header subtype classes as declared in DLNAHeader.Type. It creates a new instance of the subtype class and calls its UpnpHeader.setString(String) method. If no InvalidHeaderException is thrown, the subtype instance is returned.

Parameters:

type - The type (or name) of the header.

headerValue - The value of the header.

Returns:

The best matching header subtype instance, or null if no subtype can be found.
