Adrien Grand updated LUCENE-7920: --------------------------------- Attachment: LUCENE-7920.patch Here is a proposal that adds an expert factory method that directly takes the binary representation of the address rather than an {{InetAddress}} instance. > Make it easier to create ip prefix queries > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: LUCENE-7920 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7920 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Adrien Grand > Priority: Minor > Attachments: LUCENE-7920.patch > > > {{InetAddress.getByAddress}} automatically transforms ipv6-mapped ipv4 > addresses to ipv4 addresses. While this is usually desirable, it can make ip > prefix query a bit trappy. For instance the following code: > {code} > InetAddressPoint.newPrefixQuery("a", InetAddress.getByName("::ffff:0:0"), 96); > {code} > throws an IAE complaining that the prefix length is invalid: {{illegal > prefixLength '96'. Must be 0-32 for IPv4 ranges, 0-128 for IPv6 ranges}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
