TCPConnectionGetPeerIP

 
 

Library: TCP/IP client and server support (OMTCP legacy, OmniMark versions 4 - 6.0.1)
Include: omtcp.xin
Return type: String

Returns: The peer's IP address.


Declaration

define external stream function TCPConnectionGetPeerIP
      value TCPConnection this-TCPConnection
as TCPConnectionGetPeerIP


Purpose

This function is used to determine the IP address of the peer host on the other side of the connection. The IP is returned in dotted decimal format (for example, "127.0.0.1").

If the passed TCP connection object is closed or was never connected, this function returns a distinct value that doesn't look like a valid peer IP, and causes the TCP connection to be in error.

Argument:

Example:

  local TCPService omdemo-service
  local TCPConnection client
  
  set omdemo-service to TCPServiceOpen at 5600
  
  repeat 
     set client to TCPServiceAcceptConnection omdemo-service
     output "Request from " || "g"% TCPConnectionGetPeerIP client || "%n"
     ;process request
  again
