Hallo,
I can find the servername by this:
String servername;
try
{
servername = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName(); //
mymachine
}
catch (UnknownHostException e)
{
servername = System.getenv("COMPUTERNAME"); // MYMACHINE on
Windows
if servername == null || servername.length() == 0)
{
servername = System.getenv("HOSTNAME"); // mymachine on Unix
}
}
But I still have to find out the port and the protocol of my app. I would
prefer to read it from the machine than to configure it in the web.xml
manually. Any proposals?
Thanks!
