ip address ?

[Vishakha Ahuja]

How can I determine the ip address of my home pc ?

[Matt Siegel]

Use java.net.InetAddress:

String localIP = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress();

API: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/net/InetAddress.html
HTH!

Hi!
Try at MSDOS command prompt:
ipconfig
(if you just want to know about your PC's address)
or if it is in some java program try
InetAddress ad = InetAddress.getByName("localhost");

Hi,
Use this simple code.
import java.net.*;
class whoami{
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{
InetAddress a = InetAddress.getByName(null);
System.out.println(a);
}
}

The InetAddress .getByName with a paramater of null helps determine the local IP address.
