Puzzle for you:
I want a broker to be able to eliminate its own addresss from a multi-address
URL so that it doesn't end up connecting to itself. Anyone got a technique for
that? It has to work with IPv4, IPv6, DNS names, /etc/host names and any other
way a user is allowed to express a broker address. It has to work for all the
protocols the broker supports and it has to work on hosts with multiple NICs.
Best I can come up with so far is for the broker to connect to all the addresses
and send a UUID or some such token, then see if it gets a connection back to
itself - if so eliminate the address. Anyone got a simpler solution?
Cheers,
Alan.
