NAME
NetAddr::IP::FastNew - NetAddr::IP new() methods with no validation
VERSION
0.4
SYNOPSIS
use NetAddr::IP::FastNew;
my $ip = new NetAddr::IP::FastNew( '10.10.10.5' );DESCRIPTION
This module is designed to quickly create NetAddr::IP objects.
If you have a situation where you need 200_000 NetAddr::IP objects then the initialization speed can really become a problem.

METHODS
new
Right now this just calls NetAddr::IP->new().
my $ip = NetAddr::IP::FastNew->new("127.0.0.1");new_ipv4
Create a real NetAddr::IP from a single IPv4 address with almost no validation.
This only takes one argument, the single IP address. Anything else will fail in (probably) bad ways. Validation is completely up to you and is not done here.
my $ip = NetAddr::IP::FastNew->new_ipv4("127.0.0.1");new_ipv4_mask
Create a real NetAddr::IP from a IPv4 subnet with almost no validation.
This requires the IP address and the subnet mask as it's two arguments. Anything else will fail in (probably) bad ways. Validation is completely up to the caller is not done here.
my $ip = NetAddr::IP::FastNew->new_ipv4_mask("127.0.0.0", "255.255.255.0");new_ipv4_cidr
Create a real NetAddr::IP object from a IPv4 cidr with almost no validation.
This requires the IP address and the cidr in a single argument. Anything else will fail in (probably) bad ways. Validation is completely up to the caller is not done here.
my $ip = NetAddr::IP::FastNew->new_ipv4_cidr("127.0.0.0/24");new_ipv6
Create a real NetAddr::IP object from an IPv6 subnet with no validation. This is almost as fast as the lazy object. The only caveat being it requires a cidr mask.
my $ip = NetAddr::IP::FastNew->new_ipv6("fe80::/64");
