' Gets the IP loopback address and converts it to a string.
Dim IpAddressString As [String] = IPAddress.Loopback.ToString()
Console.WriteLine(("Loopback IP address : " + IpAddressString))
End Sub 'PrintLoopbackAddress
public void PrintLoopbackAddress()
{
// Gets the IP loopback address and converts it to a string.
String IpAddressString = IPAddress.Loopback.ToString();
Console.WriteLine("Loopback IP address : " + IpAddressString);
}
void PrintLoopbackAddress()
{
// Gets the IP loopback address and converts it to a string.
String^ IpAddressString = IPAddress::Loopback->ToString();
Console::WriteLine( "Loopback IP address : {0}", IpAddressString );
}
void PrintLoopbackAddress() {
// Gets the IP loopback address and converts it to a string.
String* IpAddressString = IPAddress::Loopback->ToString();
Console::WriteLine(S"Loopback IP address : {0}", IpAddressString);
