Here is another approach:
function myIP
constant testIP = "1.0.0.1" -- Any public IP should do. -- Dar
open datagram socket testIP
get hostAddress(testIP)
close socket testIP
return it
end myIP
Note that opening a datagram socket does not try to communicate with
anything.
This works on most platforms but not OS X. It does work on OS X with
Revolution 2.5 beta, so there is a good chance this will worked with
the 2.5 release.
