I am very new to Cocoa programming, although I have some Java knowledge,
I picked up Objective-C. I want to write a simple application that will
report information about the network (user IP address, DNS servers,
AppleTalk status, etc.). What I don't see anywhere though, in the
developer documentation, is anything related to internetworking. I looked
at this NSL Manager, and it looked at first as though it did what I
wanted,but it looks less and less like that. Could somebody point me in
the right direction? Am I missing something really simple?
You have to use the SystemConfiguration framework for that. The scutil
tool is a simple commandline interface to it.
(Note: the SystemConfiguration framework is private, but you can get the
headers from the Darwin CVS)
But I don't think that's something for a newbie...
