[jira] [Created] (HTTPCLIENT-1317) InetAddressUtils should handle IPv6 Addresses with Embedded IPv4 Addresses

Sebb created HTTPCLIENT-1317:
--------------------------------

             Summary: InetAddressUtils should handle IPv6 Addresses with Embedded IPv4 Addresses
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1317
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1317
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Sebb


IPv6 Addresses with Embedded IPv4 Addresses are not currently handled by InetAddressUtils

See RFC 4291 [1] section 2.5.5

It looks like matching of IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Addresses - e.g. ::1.2.3.4 - is not needed, but IPv4-Mapped IPv6 Addresses - e.g. ::FFFF:1.2.3.4 - will be useful
