Solved Get players ip

Im making a plugin that gets the players ip adress and stores it to a database.
Im currently using:

Code:java

String ip = player.getAddress().getHostName();

but when someone joins the server the ip adress is: XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX.mybroadband.com
i want the adress to be: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.
How can i do that?

 

albin900 Then split it.

 

It a bit complicate because some adresses have: cX.XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX.mybroadband.com and some have
XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX.domain5.mybroadband.com

 

albin900 and what does just getAddress() return? I think you are getting the mybroadband thing because of the getHostName() but, then again, I never really messed about with IPs.

 

albin900 How is that complicated? Just split it then go through a loop and add the ones that are good to a string.

 

But i tried with just:

Code:java

 
String ip = player.getAddress();
 

but it will not work.

 

albin900 can you do getAddress().toString()? I thing just getAddress() returns an INet address or something.

 

Thanks That worked
After that i was replacing the / and : in the string

 

albin900 So everything is sorted then, I take it? If so make sure you mark this as solved so other threads can get some attention.
