+=head1 NAME
+
+IO::Socket::INET6 - Object interface for AF_INET6 domain sockets
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    use IO::Socket::INET6;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<IO::Socket::INET6> provides an object interface to creating and using sockets
+in the AF_INET6 domain. It is built upon the L<IO::Socket> interface and
+inherits all the methods defined by L<IO::Socket>.
+
+=head1 CONSTRUCTOR
+
+=over 4
+
+=item new ( [ARGS] )
+
+Creates an C<IO::Socket::INET6> object, which is a reference to a
+newly created symbol (see the C<Symbol> package). C<new>
+optionally takes arguments, these arguments are in key-value pairs.
+
+In addition to the key-value pairs accepted by L<IO::Socket>,
+C<IO::Socket::INET6> provides.
+
+
+    PeerAddr	Remote host address          <hostname>[:<port>]
+    PeerHost	Synonym for PeerAddr
+    PeerPort	Remote port or service       <service>[(<no>)] | <no>
+    LocalAddr	Local host bind	address      hostname[:port]
+    LocalHost	Synonym for LocalAddr
+    LocalPort	Local host bind	port         <service>[(<no>)] | <no>
+    Proto	Protocol name (or number)    "tcp" | "udp" | ...
+    Type	Socket type                  SOCK_STREAM | SOCK_DGRAM | ...
+    Listen	Queue size for listen
+    ReuseAddr	Set SO_REUSEADDR before binding
+    Reuse	Set SO_REUSEADDR before binding (deprecated, prefer ReuseAddr)
+    ReusePort	Set SO_REUSEPORT before binding
+    Broadcast	Set SO_BROADCAST before binding
+    Timeout	Timeout	value for various operations
+    MultiHomed  Try all adresses for multi-homed hosts
+    Blocking    Determine if connection will be blocking mode
+
+If C<Listen> is defined then a listen socket is created, else if the
+socket type, which is derived from the protocol, is SOCK_STREAM then
+connect() is called.
+
+Although it is not illegal, the use of C<MultiHomed> on a socket
+which is in non-blocking mode is of little use. This is because the
+first connect will never fail with a timeout as the connect call
+will not block.
+
+The C<PeerAddr> can be a hostname or the IP-address on the
+"xx.xx.xx.xx" form.  The C<PeerPort> can be a number or a symbolic
+service name.  The service name might be followed by a number in
+parenthesis which is used if the service is not known by the system.
+The C<PeerPort> specification can also be embedded in the C<PeerAddr>
+by preceding it with a ":".
+
+If C<Proto> is not given and you specify a symbolic C<PeerPort> port,
+then the constructor will try to derive C<Proto> from the service
+name.  As a last resort C<Proto> "tcp" is assumed.  The C<Type>
+parameter will be deduced from C<Proto> if not specified.
+
+If the constructor is only passed a single argument, it is assumed to
+be a C<PeerAddr> specification.
+
+If C<Blocking> is set to 0, the connection will be in nonblocking mode.
+If not specified it defaults to 1 (blocking mode).
+
+Examples:
+
+   $sock = IO::Socket::INET6->new(PeerAddr => 'www.perl.org',
+                                 PeerPort => 'http(80)',
+                                 Proto    => 'tcp');
+
+   $sock = IO::Socket::INET6->new(PeerAddr => 'localhost:smtp(25)');
+
+   $sock = IO::Socket::INET6->new(Listen    => 5,
+                                 LocalAddr => 'localhost',
+                                 LocalPort => 9000,
+                                 Proto     => 'tcp');
+
+   $sock = IO::Socket::INET6->new('[::1]:25');
+
+   $sock = IO::Socket::INET6->new(PeerPort  => 9999,
+                                 PeerAddr  => inet_ntop(AF_INET6,in6addr_broadcast),
+                                 Proto     => udp,    
+                                 LocalAddr => 'localhost',
+                                 Broadcast => 1 ) 
+                             or die "Can't bind : $@\n";
+
+ NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE
+
+As of VERSION 1.18 all IO::Socket objects have autoflush turned on
+by default. This was not the case with earlier releases.
