I'm using libcurl version 7.21.1 built for WIN32 (a bit dated I know) with IPv6 support enabled.

Reading the docs I got the impression that DNS lookups weren't performed when using IP:s instead of host names in connection URL:s.

I've noticed that when using libcurl to connect to an FTP server there is a call to getaddrinfo although the URL is ftp://192.168.34.132.

Did I miss a setting to control this feature or did I misunderstand the docs?

It shouldn't have to do any calls to getaddrinfo() in that case.

However, I would say that there's a good chance we fixed that among the 600+ bug fixes we've done since that version... If you can repeat it with a modern libcurl version I'll be interested!
