'''Update:''' As of 2010-09-28 the branch has been merged to CVS HEAD, so the IPv6 changes can now be tested there.

----

**Testing the upcoming IPv6 support for Tcl**

This page collects test results from the CVS branch that adds IPv6 support to Tcl.

To help with the testing, pull the '''rmax-ipv6-branch''' from Tcl's CVS
(details http://wiki.tcl.tk/25947#pagetoc9eafe239%|%here%|%) and run the usual `configure/make/make test` sequence on it. 

Please update the table to reflect the current state of testing.

***Instructions for editing the Table***
   * If `make test` on rmax-ipv6-branch shows failures that are not present in the rmax-ipv6-merge tag, report FAIL, otherwise report OK.
   * If the branch used to be working, but breaks at some point, leave the OK entry there and add a FAIL entry below it.
   * If it used to fail before, but works now, update the existing line.
   * For FAIL entries, please add a section below the table and paste a representative sample of the output of failing tests.

***Failing Tests***
****(1) Example failure****
`paste your test failures here`

****(2) HPUX 11.0****
======
Needed getaddrinfo emulation
======

****(3) AIX 5.1 (strict C89 compiler)****
======
Needed patch to not have AI_ADDRCONFIG in ai_hints
======

****(4) MacOS X 10.4****
======

***Pulling the branch from CVS***
Run the following two commands while in the directory into which you want to put the checkout.
======
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@tcl.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/tcl login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@tcl.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/tcl co -P -r rmax-ipv6-branch tcl
======
Once you have checked it out, you can use `cvs up` from within the tcl directory to pull the latest version.<<br>>
Use `cvs up -r rmax-ipv6-merge` and `cvs up -r rmax-ipv6-branch` to switch between the two tags for comparing test results.<<br>>Alternatively you can rename the tcl directory and do a second checkout with the other tag to have the two versions side by side.
