Hi Rolf,

That's what I was looking for! Thanks!
On second thoughts, I would like to know how to get the processor speed as well ;-)
And could you help me on my way with my second question, how do I inspect the headers of for instance mach/mach.h? Where do I find for instance the possible values of gestaltReturnValues?
Again, many thanks in advance!

Alex

Hi,

Try the following:

+(NSString *)processor {
SInt32 gestaltReturnValue;
NSString * result = @"";
if (!Gestalt(gestaltNativeCPUtype, &gestaltReturnValue)) {
switch (gestaltReturnValue) {
case gestaltCPU601 :
case gestaltCPU603 :
case gestaltCPU604 :
case gestaltCPU603e :
case gestaltCPU603ev :
case gestaltCPU750 :
case gestaltCPU604e :
case gestaltCPU604ev : { result = @"G3"; break; }
case gestaltCPUG4 :
case gestaltCPUG47450 : { result = @"G4"; break; }
default: {
if (gestaltReturnValue > gestaltCPUG47450) {
result = @"G4 or better";
} else {
result = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Unknown"];
}
}
}
} else { // Failed
}
return result;
}


If you need to know th nr of Mhz and so forth send me a note.

Hi There!

Does anyone know a simple call to find out which processor type (G3 or
G4, PPC970 ;-) the user has?
Ideally, I'm looking for something like MPProcessors() which returns
the number of processors the machine has. Then one more small question.
It might be to simple for words, but for someone new to the UNIX world,
is there a simple way to browse to the header files like mach/mach.h
and other c libraries?

Many thanks in advance!
Alexander Griekspoor
