> What happens, when a user wants to use IPv6 and a port? Is it worth adding a complete library, to check for a IPv6 address, only? ************************************************************************************ The following URL said IPv6 ports are not needed in Java: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/net/ipv6_guide/#:~:text=IPv6%20in%20Java%20is%20transparent%20and%20automatic.%20Porting%20is%20not%20necessary Quote: "IPv6 in Java is transparent and automatic. Porting is not necessary;" ************************************************************************************ I added a small, specialized library to check for IPv6, since that is what the library is specialized to do. If we add manual code to check for IPv6 format, human errors could be introduced either now or later. Also, if the IPv6 standard is revised in the future, the specialized library will take care of following the latest IPv6 format.
