get host name that run applet

[teenIce]

Hi all,

I want to know if there are any way to get host name that run an applet.

e.g : If I run from another computer, it gives the computer name or web name.

Hi,
I think this will be helpful for u...

 
System.out.println(System.getProperty ("user.name"));

System.out.println(System.getProperty ("user.name"));
 

That will just give you the username of that computer. I don't think, you can get the Systems name by using System.getProperty(...), as the following code should display all possibilities, which (at least on my computer) do not include the Systems name.

if (args == null || args.length == 0)
{
    java.util.Enumeration e = System.getProperties().propertyNames();
    while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
        String key = (String)e.nextElement();
        System.out.println(key +"\t : \t"+ System.getProperty(key));
    }
}
else
{
    for (int n = 0; n < args.length; ++ n)
    {
        if (args[n] != null && args[n].length() > 0)
        {
            String p = System.getProperty(args[n]);
            if (p != null)
                System.out.println(p);
        }
    }
}
 

If you want the actual computers name, try this:

try {
   java.net.InetAddress i = java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost();
   System.out.println(i);                  // name and IP address
   System.out.println(i.getHostName());    // name
   System.out.println(i.getHostAddress()); // IP address only
   }
catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
