Allow IPv6 address literals #447

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start ConnectBot
2. Select Telnet mode
3. Enter the following address: [fe80::21b:77ff:fe2c:b690]:22

Q: What is the expected output? 
A: I expect it to add the host to the list, and at least attempt to connect.

Q: What do you see instead?
A: Instead, it rejects the address as invalid.

Q: What version of the product are you using?
A: Version 1.7.1

Q: What type of system are you trying to connect to?
A: In the above example it is a Linux PC but this is irrelevant.

I attempted to modify ConnectBot to fix this problem, but unfortunately this 
was not possible because android.net.Uri does not support IPv6 address literals 
in URIs :-(. This means that unless ConnectBot avoids using the Android Uri 
class, we probably have to wait for Google to fix it.

IPv6 is now available over Verizon 3G in some areas.  Is there any update on 
this?

FWIW, this form is defined in STD66 http://tools.ietf.org/html/std66

Is there an issue already open on Android to properly support this?
