Problem in receiving IP address using TCPServer example
I have connected the stm32 discovery and a PC over a same local network using ethernet as a network interface and trying to run the basic TCP server example code. The code used is shown below.
#if !FEATURE_LWIP #error [NOT_SUPPORTED] LWIP not supported for this target #endif #include "mbed.h" #include "EthernetInterface.h" #include "TCPServer.h" #include "TCPSocket.h" Serial pc(USBTX, USBRX); #define HTTP_STATUS_LINE "HTTP/1.0 200 OK" #define HTTP_HEADER_FIELDS "Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8" #define HTTP_MESSAGE_BODY "" \ "<html>" "\r\n" \ " <body style=\"display:flex;text-align:center\">" "\r\n" \ " <div style=\"margin:auto\">" "\r\n" \ " <h1>Hello World</h1>" "\r\n" \ " <p>It works !</p>" "\r\n" \ " </div>" "\r\n" \ " </body>" "\r\n" \ "</html>" #define HTTP_RESPONSE HTTP_STATUS_LINE "\r\n" \ HTTP_HEADER_FIELDS "\r\n" \ "\r\n" \ HTTP_MESSAGE_BODY "\r\n" int main() { pc.printf("Basic HTTP server example\n"); EthernetInterface eth; eth.connect(); pc.printf("The target IP address is '%s'\n", eth.get_ip_address()); TCPServer srv; TCPSocket clt_sock; SocketAddress clt_addr; /* Open the server on ethernet stack */ srv.open(ð); /* Bind the HTTP port (TCP 80) to the server */ srv.bind(eth.get_ip_address(), 80); /* Can handle 5 simultaneous connections */ srv.listen(5); while (true) { srv.accept(&clt_sock, &clt_addr); pc.printf("accept %s:%d\n", clt_addr.get_ip_address(), clt_addr.get_port()); clt_sock.send(HTTP_RESPONSE, strlen(HTTP_RESPONSE)); } }
My issue is that the local IP address received as shown in a serial terminal is in undefined state.I guess serial terminal is not able to receive the string.How to rectify this problem ? And when I tried setting the setting IP address using set_network function, the Tcpserver bind function returns the negative value.What could be the issue ?
Which example program are you using? & Which board specifically?
