Subject: [Bug libc/5479] gethostbyname() fails on IPv6 numeric addresses
Date: Mon, 07 Apr 2008 18:41:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080407184041.2564.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20071212172414.5479.aurelien@aurel32.net>


------- Additional Comments From aurelien at aurel32 dot net  2008-04-07 18:40 -------
Please consider the following testcase:

#include <netdb.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
   if( gethostbyname( "127.0.0.1" ) == NULL )
      printf( "error: %d\n", (int)h_errno );
   else
      printf( "found\n" );

   if( gethostbyname( "::1" ) == NULL )
      printf( "error: %d\n", (int)h_errno );
   else
      printf( "found\n" );
}

Numeric IPv4 addresses are left unchanged. That's not the case for IPv6 
addresses.
