Here is the Code of the Example :

IPaddress.java

import java.net.*;

public class Ipaddress{
  public static void main(String args[]){
  try{
  InetAddress local= InetAddress.getLocalHost();
  System.out.println ("Local IP Address is : " + local);
  }
  catch (UnknownHostException e){
  System.err.println ("Can't detect IP Address : " + e);
  }
  }
}
