Generally it is because no one has a answer for your question...
possibly because no good one exists, the question isn't clear enough or
the question it outside the target audience of the list.
Hi All,
I am new to Cocoa/Objective C programming, and working on my first app.
The app is a basic system to get a systems vital perameters, such as
fan
speeds, temperatures and the like, but I have been largely unsuccessful
in finding how to get this information.
Is there an API for getting this sort of information?
No published or supported API that I know of.
Try playing with "ioreg" listings at the command line for a possible
route to getting the information (look for sensor driver entries). You
may want to ask around on the darwin/driver/kernel related mailing list
since this is a hardware level issue [1] not so much Cocoa development
related.
It is acceptable to only be able to get this info on later model
hardware such as G4/5's on OSX/Darwin only.
Acceptable for who?
-Shawn
