Hi,

I would like to know if there is an Eclipse API to return the machine name
where the Eclipse is running. I could not find such an API, but if someone
knows of it I will really appreciate it.

Also, if this is not the right place to post this question, please let me
know which forum should I post it on.

Thanks.
Irum Godil.

InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName() (not specific to Eclipse) seems
to be doing the job.

Cheers,
Dimitrios
