Hi i would just like to know how wud u display the client's IP address when the client connects to the server.
This is found on the servers side while waiting for a connect. now i just need to display the client's IP address in this while loop but how:/
while(1)
{
textcolor(15);
cout << "WAITING FOR CONNECTION..." << endl;
alen = sizeof(cad);
if((sd2 = accept(sd, (struct sockaddr *)&cad, &alen)) < 0)
{
textcolor(12);
fprintf(stderr, "ACCEPT FAILED\n");
exit(1);
}
s.selectQuery(query1,header);//The select Query will write to the lostLog file
//will read from lostLog and put all data into the all variable
ifstream infile("lostLog.doc");
x="";
all="";
while(getline(infile,x))
{
all+=x+"\n";
}
textcolor(10);
cout << "A CLIENT HAS CONNECTED TO THE SERVER! " << endl;
//create the buffer to send over the network
char buffer[all.size()];
sprintf(buffer, "%s ", all.c_str());
send(sd2, buffer,strlen(buffer),0);
closesocket(sd2);
}
