Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1119:
-----------------------------------------------
InetAddress retains the original hostname it was created with. Oracle is not
restricted to using public APIs. There is nothing that prevents them from
obtaining the original hostname without triggering undesired reverse lookups
(which I believe is the rationale given for the present bizarre behavior) .
There is a reason for having #createSocket and #connectSocket as separate
methods: it enables HttpClient to unblock #connectSocket operation by shutting
down the underlying socket. There is also reason for using InetAddress to
represent the target of an outgoing connection.

> Provide support for Server Name Indication (SNI) support as per RFC 3546
> (section 3.1).
> Currently attempting to connect to SNI enabled host 'expectedhost' over SSL
> using http client results in an SSLException similar to:
> javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match:
> <expectedhost> != <defaulthost>
> at
> org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier.verify(AbstractVerifier.java:220)
> We use SNI on some of our environments and were trying to use httpclient to
> automatically test host access and availability.
