# Simple example This example demonstrates using socket helpers on ESP_PLATFORM The functionality of this example is meant to be very generic, so the application is compilable on linux without any IDF dependencies: ```bash gcc main/app.c -lpthread ``` ## Example output on ESP_PLATFORM ``` I (8073) esp_netif_handlers: example_netif_sta ip: 192.168.0.32, mask: 255.255.255.0, gw: 192.168.0.1 I (8073) example_connect: Got IPv4 event: Interface "example_netif_sta" address: 192.168.0.32 I (8073) example_common: Connected to example_netif_sta I (8083) example_common: - IPv4 address: 192.168.0.32, I (8093) example_common: - IPv6 address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:XXXX, type: ESP_IP6_ADDR_IS_LINK_LOCAL I (8103) sock_utils_example: Received signal: IP4 I (8103) sock_utils_example: IPv4 address of interface "sta": 192.168.0.32 I (8113) main_task: Returned from app_main() ``` ## Example output on linux platform ``` I[sock_utils_example]: Received signal: IP4 I[sock_utils_example]: IPv4 address of interface "lo": 127.0.0.1 I[sock_utils_example]: IPv4 address of interface "en0": 192.168.0.28 I[sock_utils_example]: IPv4 address of interface "docker0": 172.17.0.1 ```
