>          Key: HARMONY-73
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-73
>      Project: Harmony
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: Classlib
>     Reporter: Svetlana Samoilenko
>     Priority: Minor
>  Attachments: InetAddress.patch

> J2se 1.4.2 and 5.0 specifications for java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost() read, that if there is a security manager, its checkConnect method is called with the local host name and -1 as its arguments to see if the operation is allowed. 
> If the operation is not allowed, an InetAddress representing the loopback address is returned as hostname/hostaddress (as followed from toString() specification).
> The test listed below shows that the returned loopback address has wrong hostname, "127.0.0.1" instead of "loopback".
> Inet_SecurityManager class is called twice and therefore host name is substituted with hostaddress address.
> Code to reproduce: 
> import java.net.*; 
> public class test2 { 
>     public static void main(String[] args) { 
>         try { 
>             System.setSecurityManager(new Inet_SecurityManager());
>             System.out.println("Loopback address = " + InetAddress.getLocalHost());
>         } catch (Exception e){ 
>             System.out.println("Unexpected exception = " + e); 
>         }; 
>     } 
> } 
> class Inet_SecurityManager extends SecurityManager { 
>     public void checkConnect(String host, int port) { 
>         super.checkConnect(host,port); 
>         throw new SecurityException();
>     }
> }
> Steps to Reproduce: 
> 1. Build Harmony (check-out on 2006-01-30) j2se subset as described in README.txt. 
> 2. Compile test2.java using BEA 1.4 javac 
> > javac -d . test2.java 
> 3. Run java using compatible VM (J9) 
> > java -showversion test2 
> Output: 
> C:\tmp>C:\jrockit-j2sdk1.4.2_04\bin\java.exe -showversion test2 
> java version "1.4.2_04" 
> Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05) 
> BEA WebLogic JRockit(TM) 1.4.2_04 JVM (build ari-31788-20040616-1132-win-ia32, Native Threads, GC strategy: parallel) 
> Inet_SecurityManager :host= nswssamoil1
> Inet_SecurityManager :port= -1
> Loopback address = localhost/127.0.0.1
> C:\tmp>C:\harmony\trunk\deploy\jre\bin\java -showversion test2

> Inet_SecurityManager :host= nswssamoil1
> Inet_SecurityManager :port= -1
> Inet_SecurityManager :host= localhost
> Inet_SecurityManager :port= -1
> Loopback address = 127.0.0.1/127.0.0.1
> Suggested junit test case:
> ------------------------ InetAddressTest.java ------------------------------------------------- 
> import java.net.*; 
> import junit.framework.*; 
> public class InetAddressTest extends TestCase {

>             System.setSecurityManager(new Inet_SecurityManager()); 
>             String hostname=InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();           
>             assertEquals("localhost", hostname);
