Re: Forcing IPv6 onto existing modules

Instead of a new module, maybe it could be an option added to IO::Socket::INET6

use IO::Socket::INET6 qw( :force );  # Or whatever

Just an idea.

Hi, I'm currently preparing a talk about Perl+IPv6 for the next german perl Workshop and I'll implemented this suggestion and took it further. To CPAN just uploaded is Net::INET6Glue. Part of it makes IO::Socket::INET the same as IO::Socket::INET6 and another part patches IPv6 support into Net::FTP (e.g EPRT, EPSV)	[reply]
