Hi, I was just wondering if it would be possible to add an option to force IPv4 hostname resolution in libdrizzle (disable IPv6). Such an option would be interesting when connecting to a server that does not support IPv6 connection (e.g. MySQL server).
Such a change is even more important on the Windows version of libdrizzle because the Windows version only tries the first address info returned by getaddrinfo: - the Windows poll() function times out when the connection is refused instead of returning the events corresponding events - this means drizzle_con_wait() returns a timeout error and drizzle_state_connecting does not try the next address info structures Adding a connection option that forces IPv4 hostname resolution is very simple to implement: - In drizzle_state_addrinfo(), "ai.ai_family" simply needs to be set to AF_INET instead of AF_UNSPEC when the option is set. Has anyone got any suggestion?
