[jira] Commented: (HARMONY-56) java.net.InetAddress.getAllByName(null) throws UnknownHostException instead of valid InetAddress

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

Tim, 
I used revision 375576 and all works fine. 
Test output is: 
***InetAddress.getAllByName(null)[0] returned localhost/127.0.0.1
Thank you.

> According to j2se 1.4.2 specification java.net.InetAddress.getAllByName(String host) method allows a host is null. In this case the  InetAddress representing an address of the loopback interface is returned.
> But as we can see from the test listed below java.net.InetAddress.getAllByName(null) throws UnknownHostException instead of valid InetAddress.
> Code to reproduce: 
> import java.net.*;
> public class test2 {
>     public static void main (String[] args) {
>  
>         try {
>            InetAddress[] ia = InetAddress.getAllByName(null); 
>            for (int i = 0; i<ia.length; i++) {
>                System.out.println("***InetAddress.getAllByName(null)["+i+"] returned " + ia[i]); 
>            }
>         } catch (Exception e) {
>             System.out.println("***Unexpected exception:" + e); 
>        }
>     } 
> }
> Steps to Reproduce: 
> 1. Build Harmony (check-out on 2006-01-30) j2se subset as described in README.txt. 
> 2. Compile test2.java using BEA 1.4 javac 
> > javac -d . test2.java 
> 3. Run java using compatible VM (J9) 
> > java -showversion test2 
> Output: 
> C:\tmp>C:\jrockit-j2sdk1.4.2_04\bin\java.exe -showversion test2 
> java version "1.4.2_04" 
> Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05) 
> BEA WebLogic JRockit(TM) 1.4.2_04 JVM (build ari-31788-20040616-1132-win-ia32, Native Threads, GC strategy: parallel) 
> ***InetAddress.getAllByName(null)[0] returned localhost/127.0.0.1

> ***Unexpected exception:java.net.UnknownHostException: No host name provided
> Suggested junit test case:
> ------------------------ InetAddressTest.java ------------------------------------------------- 
> import java.net.*; 
> import junit.framework.*; 
> public class InetAddressTest extends TestCase { 
>     public static void main(String[] args) { 
>         junit.textui.TestRunner.run(InetAddressTest.class); 
>     } 
>     public void test_getAllByName() { 
>         try {
>            InetAddress[] ia = InetAddress.getAllByName(null); 
>            assertEquals ("Assert 0: getAllByName() returns incorrect value " + ia[0].toString(),"localhost/127.0.0.1",ia[0].toString()); 
>         } catch (Exception e) {            
>            fail("Assert 1: Unexpected exception:" + e);
>         }
