This method is good, but not perfect, for 1. getNextPortsForUDP get a free port by a mechanism "get and release", but release the port may not be successful (e.g, in linux)
2. even it releases successfully, during the period between utility
method "release" and serversocket reuse it, there may be some other program reuse the port, which cause the test fail again.
Open and close is not safe in theory, as we discussed before. Let's stop getNextPort, and stick to use port 0. :) I think we have agreed that a long time ago. 3. this may cost much more time to get a port.
The perfect solution for this is re-write the testcases, create
ServerSocket with port 0, and then get the local port for socket to connect. However I guess it may cause a lot of affect.
yes, but we can do it lazily and gradually. The important thing is that we should not use the buggy getNextPort any more.... 2007/4/18, Tony Wu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
