output/java_guava/1.4.17/InternetDomainName.java:469–476

(String name)

  public static boolean isValid(String name) {
    try {
      from(name);
      return true;
    } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
      return false;
    }
  }

  /**
   * Does the domain name match one of the "wildcard" patterns (e.g. {@code "*.ar"})?
