hi,

In mpi we can get host name by using, MPI_Get_processor_name();
 Is there a way to get the IP address ?

thanks

Well, MPI is a parallel computing infrastructure that makes no assumption on the underlying network connection, which must not necessarily use IP protocol, so it does not provide any IP-related function (and the result of MPI_Get_processor_name is not guaranteed, AFAIK, to be a valid IP hostname), so if you really need that, you should use the standard libc functions, for this purpose.
       Best wishes, Davide
