IPSocket::getaddress problem

Haze Noc

Hey guys, I want to test if IPSocket::getaddress('address') is valid
before printing it or anything..

If the user enters an invalid address then the program dies, i tried
rescuing the error but i didn't have much luck, any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Try creating a test first.
Using testing facilities in Ruby is exactly for this kind of thing!

success = false
begin
a = IPSocket::getaddress('their input')
success = true
rescue Exception => detail
# arr! evil address
success = false
end
