Re: when domain lookup result has ipv6 and ipv4

sorry, I did not make it clear.

At the first time, I connect with a host with Happy Eyeball.
libcurl will try to use ipv6 & ipv4 connection.
If the ipv4 connection is successfully connected.

should libcurl cache ipv4 as the result.
and not to try ipv6 at the second time?
