Hi Chris / Volker,
I had already tried doing the same as is done for Linux, ie calling this
first
mcast_set_if_by_if_v4(env, this, fd, value);
This still fails for some reason with EADDRNOTAVAIL.
This error gets cleared by the
if ((*env)->ExceptionCheck(env)){
(*env)->ExceptionClear(env);
}
as ipv6_available() still returns true, but we then still try and call
mcast_set_if_by_if_v6(env, this, fd, value);
which again fails with EADDRNOTAVAIL. So we have the same result.
Thanks

I agree.
