IO::Socket::IP provides a protocol-independent way to use IPv4 and IPv6 sockets,
|
|
as a drop-in replacement for IO::Socket::INET. Most constructor arguments and
|
|
methods are provided in a backward-compatible way. For a list of known
|
|
differences, see the IO::Socket::INET INCOMPATIBILITES section below.
|
|
|
|
It uses the getaddrinfo(3) function to convert hostnames and service names or
|
|
port numbers into sets of possible addresses to connect to or listen on. This
|
|
allows it to work for IPv6 where the system supports it, while still falling
|
|
back to IPv4-only on systems which don't.
