Sebb commented on NET-619: -------------------------- bq. Nor is there any indication why the code uses a long rather than an int. > SubnetUtils creates a binary netmask in a bad way > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NET-619 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-619 > Project: Commons Net > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Makoto Sakaguchi > Priority: Minor > > SubnetUtils runs a for-loop to create a binary netmask. > However, the way has been difficult to understand the program. > I suggest to replace with a bit-shift, and it has been made a poll request on > GitHub. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
