Dear all,
I'm using Pharo1.0rc1 Latest update: #10493, on Windows Vista , runtime
3.11.4.
Following test is going fine:
SocketTest>>testConnectToLocalhostThroughNetNameResolverAddressForNameLocalhost
|serverSocket
clientSocket address|
serverSocket := Socket newTCP.
clientSocket :=
Socket newTCP.
[ serverSocket listenOn: 6665.
address :=
NetNameResolver addressForName: '127.0.0.1' timeout: 20.
clientSocket
connectTo: address port: 6665]
ensure: [
clientSocket
close.
serverSocket close.
]
(connect to a socket on localhost)
however, following test:
testConnectToLocalhostThroughNetNameResolverLocalHostAddress
|serverSocket
clientSocket address|
serverSocket := Socket newTCP.
clientSocket :=
Socket newTCP.
[ serverSocket listenOn: 6665.
address :=
NetNameResolver localHostAddress.
clientSocket connectTo: address port:
6665]
ensure: [
clientSocket close.
serverSocket
close.
]
is failing with following error:
ConnectionTimedOut: Cannot connect to:
fe80::6dd3:7860:93c9:46a0%10(PC_xxx),6665(6665)

I understand that the above address is an ipv6 address.
(the NetNameResolver localHostAddress lookup returns on my machine a ipv6
address)
If i do ipconfig on my machine:
Ethernet-adapter LAN-verbinding:
Verbindingsspec.
DNS-achtervoegsel: lan
Link-local IPv6-adres . . . . . . :
fe80::6dd3:7860:93c9:46a0%10
IPv4-adres. . . . . . . . . . . . :
10.0.0.39
Subnetmasker. . . . . . . . . . . :
255.255.255.0
Standaardgateway. . . . . . . . . : 10.0.0.138
its the same ipv6 address.
Is it normal that the Socket class can not handle ipv6 addresses ? I get
a timeoutexception on it (however this happens immediately).
Is this the behaviour that i can expect ?
The reason i noticed this is that I'm trying Magma, the server in a
separate image but on the same machine, under ubuntu 9.10 everything worked
fine, under Windows Vista it crashed, since internally it also uses
NetNameResolver localHostAddress to connect to 'localhost', and i got the same
connect timeout exception.
In attachment, a fileout of the SocketTest (had to create a new testclass
for this :-( )
Kind regards,
Bart
