> This change implements a new service provider interface for host name and > address resolution, so that java.net.InetAddress API can make use of > resolvers other than the platform's built-in resolver. > > The following API classes are added to `java.net.spi` package to facilitate > this: > - `InetAddressResolverProvider` - abstract class defining a service, and is, > essentially, a factory for `InetAddressResolver` resolvers. > - `InetAddressResolverProvider.Configuration ` - an interface describing the > platform's built-in configuration for resolution operations that could be > used to bootstrap a resolver construction, or to implement partial delegation > of lookup operations. > - `InetAddressResolver` - an interface that defines methods for the > fundamental forward and reverse lookup operations. > - `InetAddressResolver.LookupPolicy` - a class whose instances describe the > characteristics of one forward lookup operation. > > More details in [JEP-418](https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/418). > > Testing: new and existing `tier1:tier3` tests
