[jira] Commented: (HTTPCLIENT-656) IP address of the server of a
HttpConnection
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-656?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12501733 ]
Ortwin Glück commented on HTTPCLIENT-656:
-----------------------------------------
Armin,
The feature request suggests that you don't know or forget to what server you have established a connection. I don't see a real-world use case for that. Read: you should know where you are connecting!

> IP address of the server of a HttpConnection
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HTTPCLIENT-656
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-656
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HttpConn
> Reporter: Armin Häberling
> Fix For: 4.0 Alpha 1
>
>
> AFAIK it's not possible to get the IP address of the server of a HttpConnection.
> I propose to add a getServerAddress() method to the HttpConnection class that returns the IP address of the server, if the connection has been opened.
> And either returns null or throws an Exception if the IP address is not available, i.e. the connection is not open.
> Below is a workaround for getting the IP address in current versions.
> -----------------------
> package org.apache.commons.httpclient;
> import java.io.IOException;
> import java.net.InetAddress;
> public class InetAddressFetcher {
> private HttpConnection hc;
> public InetAddressFetcher(HttpConnection hc) {
> this.hc = hc;
> }
> public InetAddress getInetAddress() throws IOException {
> if (!hc.isOpen()) {
> hc.open();
> }
> return hc.getSocket().getInetAddress();
> }
> }
