Name of Network interface?

[hellAT]

Hello, has anyone an idea the get the (current) name of the network interface? That's what you can see by "ipconfig"...

If what you are asking is to see the "ipconfig" information you can try this out.

Global $IpconfigOutputOnce

$ipconfig_output = Run(@ComSpec & " /c ipconfig /all", '', @SW_HIDE, 2)
While 1
    $ipconfig_data = StdoutRead($ipconfig_output)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    If $ipconfig_data Then
        $IpconfigOutputOnce &= $ipconfig_data
    Else
        Sleep(10)
    EndIf
WEnd
$IpconfigOutputOnce = StringStripWS($IpconfigOutputOnce, 7)

MsgBox(0, "IPCONFIG /ALL", $IpconfigOutputOnce)

okay, i thought there's something built-in autoit. But anyway, this helps, thanks!

I think it is also kept in the registry if i remember correctly.

I made this a long time ago when i was trying to learn autoit http://www.techidiots.net/autoit-scripts/ipset.rar/view, But this basically does what the above post states (except with netsh)

_RunDOS("netsh inter show interface > " & $tempfile)
While 1
    $text = FileReadLine($tempfile, $line)
    If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop
    If StringTrimRight(StringTrimLeft($text, 30), StringLen(StringTrimLeft($text, 30)) - 9) = "Dedicated" Then
        GUICtrlSetData($connections, StringTrimLeft($text, 47) & "|")
    EndIf
    $line = $line + 1
WEnd

Edit

Global $IpconfigOutputOnce

$ipconfig_output = Run(@ComSpec & " /c ipconfig /all", '', @SW_HIDE, 2)
While 1
    $ipconfig_data = StdoutRead($ipconfig_output)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    If $ipconfig_data Then
        $IpconfigOutputOnce &= $ipconfig_data
    Else
        Sleep(10)
    EndIf
WEnd
$IpconfigOutputOnce = StringStripWS($IpconfigOutputOnce, 7)

MsgBox(0, "IPCONFIG /ALL", $IpconfigOutputOnce)

I didn't know you could use StdoutRead to get the output of run...good to know :-)
