Obtain the IP address from the Application Reference

[FabiolaDelaCueva]

I would like to be able to obtain the IP Address of an application instance.

Here is one scenario:

Plug in architecture.

Host machine loads plugin VIs that monitor several targets via VI Server.

The main VI opens the connection to one of the targets' application and sends the application reference to the plugin so this VI knows what target is communicating with.  

It would be nice to be able to obtain the IP address from the Application Reference via a VI or a property node. 

Now, I know I could be sending the IP Address instead of the application reference, but if I know I am going to be calling several VIs in the same target, why do I need to open an application reference for each VI, when all could share the same application reference.

Another scnerario for this was posted here: http://lavag.org/topic/6861-address-of-an-application-instance/

Not sure if this helps you but there is a way to get an application to tell you it's IP address:
