ActivePerl

Availability and IPv6 support

Name

IPv6 support

Supported operating systems

ActivePerl

yes

Windows

Description

If system has proper IPv6 protocol stack, ActivePerl can speak IPv6 without any modification because most network functions in perl call WinSock layer directly. If programmer himself prepares sockaddr_in6 binary structure using pack or unpack and set it in the arguments of connect(), Perl'll make IPv6 connection. The situation is very similar to UNIX one.
