Question:

CkSocket::Connect and ipv6

Feb 20 '14 at 22:14

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to create client connection using CkSocket class with ipv6 address? When I try, it fails:

Connect_Socket: DllDate: Aug 15 2013 ChilkatVersion: 9.4.1.42 UnlockPrefix: xxxxxxxx Username: xxxxxxxx Architecture: Little Endian; 32-bit Language: Visual C++ 9.0 VerboseLogging: 0 objectId: 2 Connect_Socket: hostname: [fe80::3cc7:870b:e115:c4e2%11] port: 6133 ssl: 1 maxWaitMs: 20000 ConnectTimeoutMs_1: 20000 Multi-threaded hostname to IP address resolution resolveHostname6: Resolving domain name (IPV4/IPV6)... --resolveHostname6 Failed. --Connect_Socket --Connect_Socket --ChilkatLog

Post the full LastErrorText. Posting only a portion omits the critical information at the beginning which tells how old of a version you are using, and what programming language, architecture, operating system, etc. This might be something that is already fixed...

Please test using this new build:

Is this a beta release? I don't see it on main download page. Having some problems getting a build with it, related to zip component that we're also using:

ChilkatRel.lib(CkZipEntryW.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall DsoBaseProgress::DsoBaseProgress(void)" (??0DsoBaseProgress@@QAE@XZ)

If it makes differences, we were using the VC9-SP1 version of the 9.4.1 release....

Wrote a separate console application to test new build, here's what I get. Test environment is Win2k8 R2, I tried the v6 address with and without brackets.
