[jboss-remoting-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBREM-1164) Remoting shouldn't require IPv6 addresses to be surrounded by brackets

[Richard Achmatowicz (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBREM-1164?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12490212#action_12490212 ] 

Richard Achmatowicz commented on JBREM-1164:
--------------------------------------------

This latter problem may be impossible to solve: i.e. given an IPv6 address and port, separate the address from the port.
If the port is optional, it is not possible - given this string
3ffe:ffff:100:f101::2:8080
how do we know whether ir is this address port combination:
[3ffe:ffff:100:f101::2]:8080
or this one
[3ffe:ffff:100:f101::2:8080]
in which the port has not been specified and the default is to be taken.

> Although IPv6 addresses are surrounded by brackets in URLs, the addresses themselves don't have brackets.  Thus, it should be possible to start the Application Server with
>    run.sh -b ::1
> instead of requiring
>    run.sh -b [::1]
