Subject: [Core] switch_sockaddr_info_get() will not resolve if the hostname is an IP address... 
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=be554e4a0852ede27902bd03dd6efbd177902661;p=thirdparty%2Ffreeswitch.git

[Core] switch_sockaddr_info_get() will not resolve if the hostname is an IP address. Add new switch_is_ip_address() API. Add a unit-test. (#3055)
