What does everyone think about changing all references from InetAddress to a String? There are 181 places in code this is referenced, so its not a trivial change (but not difficult), and would break some backwards-compatibility, but it would make us GAE compatible (as far as I can tell, this is the only think in the way of being GAE compatible). It is interesting that the ServletRequest API does not use the InetAddress class either, but also just uses Strings. Thoughts? - Les On Mon, Nov 23, 2009 at 10:14 AM, Kalle Korhonen <[email protected]> wrote: Restricted - as in it's not in the the whitelist (http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/jrewhitelist.html). There are only certain classes that are allowed to be loaded. We could make using InetAddress optional. But Google is known to make changes to the whitelist, allowing more classes upon request.

Do you have a stack trace you could send along? The InetAddress is not strictly mandatory - it is there as a security feature to retain the IP from where the end-user initiates their application interaction so it is available easily to the application, something valuable to many apps. Something might be able to be done to make this work in App Engine easily, but I'm not sure what without knowledge of what is going wrong. Please also feel free to share any links to resources about how to deal with these restrictions if you have them.
