[Live-devel] ourIPAddress method

[Sid Price]

Thanks Ross, you are of course correct about the interface not being the one
I want :o)

 

The interface that gets selected is the one used by ActiveSync for debug and
I don't think I can change anything about it. I guess I am just going to
have to discover the interface adaptors fitted and choose the one I want.

Thanks,

Sid.

I finally have my new hardware platform available and am back working on
streaming from our embedded device. Unfortunately the platform I have has
two network adaptors active while debugging and I need to be able to select
the correct one for the server. It appears the server IP is set up in
ourIPAddress, of course it picks the wrong one.

 

It doesn't pick the 'wrong' one; it just picks a different one from the one
that you wanted :-)

 

The easiest way to ensure that one particular interface is chosen is to make
that interface the one for which multicast routing is enabled - i.e., the
interface that has a route for 224.0.0.0/4
