            What     | Removed                   | Added
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
              Status | Open                      | Closed


------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------
I commited parts of the patch to classpath and libgcj. I left IPv6 
compatibility out because of total incompleteness. This will get merged with 
libgcj soon.
I dont think its a good idea in NetworkInterface to use Hashtable instead of 
Vector.

Summary:  Net subsystem fixes

Original Submission:  Various fixes for the net subsystem:

* errors thrown by InetSocketAddress are more explicit.

* prevent NullPointerException when doing a comparison (ala Sun) 
(InetSocketAddress)

* InetSocketAddress.toString should build a string with the internal requested 
hostname if that hostname cannot be solved.

* InetAddress:

      - new LOOPBACK_BITS static field to store localhost address.

      - IPV6 compatibility

      - added isAnyAddress and isLoopbackAddress

* NetworkInterface (optional but recommanded):

      - don't forget to load native library javanet

      - native call getRealNetworkInterfaces return  a Hashtable now instead of 
a vector.
