Description
The InetSocketAddress class provides support for unresolved addresses but the only way to construct one is by creating one and have the address resolution fail, which is expensive and, if a security manager is present, you need the appropriate. We therefore need a way to create an unresolved address without trying the resolution at all.

EVALUATION A new static method in InetSocketAddress is indeed needed for that. In particular this is very useful when dealing with proxies. ###@###.### 2003-08-19
