Ralf Hauser commented on HTTPCLIENT-670:
----------------------------------------
Suggestion: add least add an abstract wrapper interface whose implementations
either use the current getByName or do something smarter such as using
dnsjava.org
if you were to use the implementation as is, I guess it is important to do
something like
Security.setProperty("networkaddress.cache.ttl", "300");
otherwise, long running applications may reach the wrong physical servers if
the dns servers changed the ip addresses while the application was running

> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HttpConn
> Reporter: Armin Häberling
>
> Currently Httpclient implicitly uses InetAddress.getByName() for DNS
> resolution.
> This has some drawbacks. One is that the DNS cache of Java per default caches
> entries forever.
> So I'd like to be able to replace InetAddress.getByName() with another DNS
> client implementation.
