In addition to making it relatively easy to write applications which inherently support TCP via both IPv4 and IPv6, LibEasyV6 is intended to be "future proof." A new layer 4 transport protocol could be implemented which jumps between multiple IP addresses during the connection. Such a protocol might rely on the host name to tie the connection together. It would remain fully compatible with the libeasyv6 API. Simply swap in a new library and your application will automatically work with the new protocol, without even recompiling it.
