Get local IP address

[JimmyK]

Hello,
I have a small program like this

struct sockaddr_in local, from; 
WSADATA wsaData; 
SOCKET listen_socket, msgsock;  

//...
local.sin_family = AF_INET; 
local.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
local.sin_port = htons(port);  
listen_socket = socket(AF_INET, socket_type,0); 
bind(listen_socket,(struct sockaddr*)&local,sizeof ocal) )  

char* myip;
myip = inet_ntoa(local.sin_addr);

But myip ="0.0.0.0"

How can i get my computer IP?

Thanks i advance

JIMMY

Thanks Pete,

It helps, but i've already known. I wonder why after i "bind" , local.sin_addr is not my local IP
