How to get and set IP addresses


Getting and setting the local IP address


Getting

The local IP address and port can be obtained with RSocket::LocalName(). The anAddr argument should be of the class TInetAddr.


Setting

The local IP address and port can be set with RSocket::Bind(). The anAddr argument should be of the class TInetAddr.

This call must be made by server applications before calling RSocket::Listen().

Client applications normally have an IP address automatically allocated to them when a dial-up connection is established.
