Hi,



I had a problem with island parallelization on genetic programming. I

could only migrate 



there is a problem with IslandExchange class. Servers and clients use

InetAddress.getLocalhost() method that returns 127.0.0.1 on some

operating systems (most Linux distributions are affected). So the

islands are told to connect to 127.0.0.1 on multiple ports, because the

other side told them it is listening on 127.0.0.1. "ConnectionException:

Connection refused" appears on console.



I fixed the problem easily: I replaced all InetAddress.getLocalhost()

calls with my own function call, defined exactly the way found at

This problem with getLocalHost() got "will not fix" status on Sun's

bugtracker. http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4665037
