Hi, Could someone please review my patch and CSR for JDK-8243999 - ’DatagramSocket and MulticastSocket constructors don't specify how a null InetAddress is handled’?
Currently, several constructors from DatagramSocket and MulticastSocket don't specify that the socket will be bound to the wildcard address if a null InetAddress is supplied, or that an unbound socket will be created if a null value is passed as a SocketAddress parameter. This fix provides clarification on this behaviour. issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8243999 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8243999> CSR: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8246663 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8246663> webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pconcannon/8245984/webrevs/webrev.00 <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pconcannon/8245984/webrevs/webrev.00> Kind regards, Patrick
