------------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 4.0 Alpha 1

Armin,
This problem has already been solved in HttpClient 4.0 code line. I do not see a point porting it to HttpClient 3.x

> 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();
> 	}
> }
