Ralf Hauser commented on HTTPCLIENT-670:
----------------------------------------
Daniel, thx for the interesting hints. Unfortunately, we do plan to use it also
with 1.6.
also, as per your ref[1], that sun.net.spi.nameservice.NameService interface
only has a
byte[][] lookupAllHostAddr(String host)
method, while InetAddress.getByName() doesn't expect multiple responses -
haven't looked at the implementation details - will it just return the first if
there are multiple ? Interestingly,
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/net/InetAddress.html#getByName(java.lang.String)
doesn't mention the possiblity that there are multiple numeric address for one
mnemonic one.

>
> 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.
