PlayerLoginEvent.getHostname() not working?

RawCode Has been already solved, or not? IP: player.getAddress().getAddress() hostname used for login:

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerLogin(PlayerLoginEvent event){
 
String hostname = event.getHostname();
 
}

 

We have established that RawCode but it throws nothing if the server cant find the hostname the user used, and me and Assist were just discussing that same matter you pointed out...

 

So after reading through all your comments.. Where is your problem? Noone even tested it?

Code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onLogin (PlayerLoginEvent e) {
        System.out.println("The player connects via: " + e.getHostname());
    }

Works perfectly fine. End of story. It either returns the

Code:

NUMERIC-IP:Port

that you used or

Code:

DOMAIN:Port 

that you used

Example:

• localhost
• 127.0.0.1

For localhost it simply prints out

Code:

localhost:25565

and for "127.0.0.1" it prints out

Code:

127.0.0.1:25565

Only reason it does not work is if you either do not register the event correctly or are not using Bukkit. Or if you run it in offline mode maybe Tested with the newest Bukkit Dev Build

 

L33m4n123Seems like you did not read through all of the comments as this has been already suggested.

 

Well done to L33m4n123 for pointing it out a fourth time (I think)

But like I have said previously, it won't return the hostname if it cant find it...

And that answers the thread creators quesion

it does not search it, client report domain used inside handshake procedure.

and yes latest version have this field working.

 

Why wouldn't it be able to find the hostname/can that be solved?

 

TomShar You got already the solution... event.getHostname(); gets the domain/ip the user used to connect. The user has to use something, so it wont be blank/null.
You used event.getPlayer().getHostname();

 

modded clients may set this field to special value, in this case you can't do anything.
