Hi All,

What is the tidiest way to retrieve the primary MAC address of the system?

Searching the API I found org.eclipse.kura.core.util.NetUtil which doesn't seem to be available for bundles to access

and org.eclipse.kura.system.SystemService has a method, but i can't seem to reference it via my component.xml:

<reference bind="setSystemService" cardinality="1..1" interface="org.eclipse.kura.system.SystemService" name="SystemService" policy="static" unbind="unsetSystemService"/>

I'm positive I should be able to reference this service, but can't find any examples to work from.

I can always write my own mac implementation, but that wouldn't be effective use of the api.

Would love to see an example project doing this...

thanks, paul.
