i vote against creating yet another utils module.
since you are
comparing texts, put it is texops module.
Hi Juha, I'm coding functions to check wheter the given string/pv is a
IPv4, IPv6, IPv6_reference, compare IP's and so. It can be used to
check a string obtained from a DB or whatever, not just from the SIP
message. Also note that checking $si (message source IP) has nothing
to do with textops module.
In fact, I'm thinking right now that the most suitable solution would
be create a library providing such functions so any other module could
internally use them (i.e. LCR for a future IPv6 addition). Opinions?
if one address is ipv4 and the other ipv6
representation of ipv4 address
(i think there is one), will the comparison return true?
No, it would return false. I don't see the point in comparing a IPv4
against its IPv6 representation and returning true, is it really
useful for our scenarios?
Regards.
