[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JGRP-544) IPv6: mcast_addr needs to be defined with backslashes
[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-544?page=comments#action_12367532 ]
Bela Ban commented on JGRP-544:
-------------------------------
Fixed, waiting for testsuite to pass until resolving it.
Now backslashes are not needed for protocol attribute values, e.g. to define an IPv6
mcast_addr, the following works:
<UDP mcast_addr="ff18:eb72:479f::2:3" mcast_port="2553" ... />
The colons in mcast_addr do not need to be escaped with a backslash any longer. Note that
'(', ')' and '=' are still reserved characters and cannot be used
as part of an attribute name or value.
IPv6: mcast_addr needs to be defined with backslashes

Key: JGRP-544
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-544
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Bela Ban
Assigned To: Bela Ban
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.5
- Investigate use of IPv6 in a non-dual stack environment (only IPv6 stack available): an
mcast_addr like "228.8.8.8" is not recognized then
- mcast_addr needs to be IPv6 and escaped with back slashes, e.g.
"mcast_addr=ff18\:eb72\:479f\:\:2\:3". Change parsing for mcast_addr and
bind_addr so we don't need backslashes
