Description

ActiveMQ server socket created with TcpTransportServer can't bind to localhost or actuall IP correctly.

• expected result:
  • localhost ---> bind to 127.0.0.1
  • actual IP ----> bind to actual IP

• actual result:
  • localhost ---> bind to 0.0.0.0
  • actual IP ----> bind to 0.0.0.0

"org.apache.activemq.transport.tcp.TcpTransportServer"

  
      InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getByName(host);

       try {
           if (host.trim().equals("localhost") || \
addr.equals(InetAddress.getLocalHost())) {  //#1 start the socket with 0.0.0.0
            this.serverSocket = \
serverSocketFactory.createServerSocket(bind.getPort(), backlog);  }
           else {
            //#2  start the socket with the ip spcified in addr.
            this.serverSocket = \
serverSocketFactory.createServerSocket(bind.getPort(), backlog, addr);  }

Since if you config the real IP as a host setting, \
addr.equals(InetAddress.getLocalHost()) will allways be true so that the #1 will be used to start the socket with 0.0.0.0 by default. Which causes a defect of geronimo: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4404
