Hi Christoph, Have reviewed you changes and they look OK. I have no preference with regards the static imports, but my view is keep the changes as simple as possible and to not make changes just for the sake of it. Have tested your patches on a couple of AIX systems, both with IPv6 enabled but one didn't have an IPv6 address configured and the other did. All the jdk/java/net/MulticastSocket tests passed. So the change also looks functionally OK.

But I’m happy to revert this. As I had only worked with AIX so far, I’ll put the test update into our test system to see whether there’ll be issues on other platforms. I’ll send an updated webrev tomorrow. Best regards Christoph From: Chris Hegarty <chris.hegarty@oracle.com> Sent: Donnerstag, 17.

It makes the code more verbose ( and IMO harder to read ). -Chris. Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
