[PD] IP address in windows?

[patko]

Hello Pierre,

 you can get ip adress with windows cmd


In pd-extended there is [flatspace/popen] object for that,

you need to create a file called 'getip.bat' containing those lines:

@echo off
for /F "usebackq tokens=14" %%i in (`ipconfig ^| find /i "IPv4"`) do echo %%i

and then you can grab the ip adress from the computer you are in by sending [getip.bat< message to  [popen] like this:

[getip.bat<
|
[flatspace/popen<
|
<symbol box>

both patch and batch files must be in the same directory, or put the batch file into pd/bin to run it from anywhere
