I don't know much about networking, but perhaps you can find your
answer at this URL (hopefully):

http://www.purebasic.com/documentation/ ... index.html

If not, then I don't know, sorry.

BTW, when you say you want to get the Client IP Address, do you mean
the local machine's IP address, or the remote machine's IP address?
In other words, are you the server or client trying to get this info?

I want PureBasic to be able to return to me the remote client IP/PORT
when the client connects towards my Server.

Right now there is no information beside the clientID (OS related counter)..

For better Server Client handling we need the remote IP/Port that
connects towards My PB-Server.

So that would be the need of (beside networkclientid())

Result1.w = networkclientport()
Result2.l = networkclientaddress()

Result1 will contain (0-65535)
Result2 will contain (Long presention of the remote IP address)

I hope the above a little more clear, IM not searching for the LOCAL ip im searching for the remote client(connected IP/port)

Regards,
Norman.

Hello Tranquile,

Thanks for the reply..usefull link!

BUT Im a LINUX user

So i need a solution for both Linux and Windows, and i think
that the PB Team can simply build it far more efficient into ASM
from the LIB than I do in PB anyway

Also it should be standard delivered with Network programming part
of PB, Its far more faster not to focus on Where to search for the Bits and bytes but simply having a Command that does this for the user.

Basic is power like PureBasic! is for sure,
so let introduce and make PureBasic better!

My Wishlist:

NetWorkClientPort()
NetWorkClientAddr()

Greeting,
Norman.

oops sorry, its in the help file, and it says for windows only.
You could start at the IP gadget thing, or look into the networking section. But still, PB assumes windows for those functions.

Well, waffle claims that the following command are in PB? 3.4, but I cannot find them anywhere in the help file nor through jaPBe.. Anybody have any clues?

Code: Select all

result.l = networkclientport() ; return current clientid ip port
result.l = networkclientaddress() ; returns current clienttd ip address

He's wrong. There are no 'native' commands. WinAPI is your only hope at the moment, and as we know, being a Linux user, this ain't much help to you
