This issue probably is the last obstacle for the 1.0 release. I've added the
following comment:
---------
The preference proposed by Miguel does not solve the problem but puts the
burden on the user that needs to change the preference depending on which
implementation works for him. This will lead to many questions and frustrated
users. If possible, I'd prefer to make the legacy IPv4 implementation work
again until we have a proper IPv6 implementation.
The problem with printing "NetNameResolver addressForName: 'www.yahoo.com'" is
not that the resolution does not work correctly but that the printOn:
implementation of SocketAddress assumes an IPv6 address. I suggest to change
the SocketAddress>>printOn: as follows. Maybe it's just this simple change to
makes IPv4 work again -- maybe more such backward compatibility code is needed.
SocketAddress >>printOn: aStream
NetNameResolver useOldNetwork ifTrue: [ ^ super printOn: aStream ].
aStream
nextPutAll: self hostNumber;
nextPut: $(; nextPutAll: self hostName; nextPut: $);
nextPut: $,;
nextPutAll: self serviceNumber;
nextPut: $(; nextPutAll: self serviceName; nextPut: $)
---------
This change makes #addressForName: work again with useOldNetwork set to true
(as it is in recent PharoCore 1.0 images).
Could people that experience problems with the network code update this method
and check out if other parts break?
Cheers,
Adrian
