From: "knu (Akinori MUSHA)" Date: 2012-10-26T00:34:05+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:48286] [ruby-trunk - Feature #4569] Replace IPAddr with IPAddress Issue #4569 has been updated by knu (Akinori MUSHA). I've made a hopefully last set of changes to ipaddr.rb in trunk a couple months ago: - introduction of IPAddr::Error for ease of selectively catching IP address errors - inhibition of zero-filled IPv4 address notation which is ambiguous (as to number bases) - removal of unexpectedly exposed IPSocket.valid* methods Marco, can you please take a look, and if you agree with it would you reflect them into the compatibility layer? ---------------------------------------- Feature #4569: Replace IPAddr with IPAddress https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/4569#change-31577 Author: ceresa@gmail.com (Marco Ceresa) Status: Assigned Priority: Normal Assignee: knu (Akinori MUSHA) Category: lib Target version: =begin Hello, following the discussion we had a few months ago about replacing IPAddr with IPAddress [1]. Here is the formal request. IPAddress is now at version 0.7.5 URL: https://github.com/bluemonk/ipaddress I think it's mature and backward compatible enough to be taken into consideration.
