           Summary: Socket.Connect() should allow IPAddress.Any from
                    datagram sockets
    Classification: Mono
           Product: Mono: Class Libraries
           Version: 2.6.x
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: System
        AssignedTo: mono-bugs at lists.ximian.com

A datagram socket can be "connected" with Socket.Connect(), but it can also be
disconnected again, by doing Socket.Connect(...IPAddress.Any..) (or
IPAddress.IPv6Any). Mono doesn't support the disconnect. The code to repro is:

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Sockets;

class Test {
  static void Main() {
    Socket s = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Dgram,
ProtocolType.Udp);
    s.Bind(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 0));
    s.Connect(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Loopback, 1234));
    s.Connect(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 0));
  }
}


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
compile & run
Actual Results:  
Unhandled Exception: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: The requested address
is not valid in its context.

  at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Connect (System.Net.EndPoint remoteEP) [0x00000]
in <filename unknown>:0
  at Test.Main () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

Expected Results:  
The socket should go back to its initial unconnected state.
