Re: Cocoa wrapper for pcap library?

Hi Tom,

All I _really_ need to do is monitor the _amount_ (the details of the data
are unimportant to me) of incoming/outgoing tcp/udp internet based traffic
over given period(s) of time.  I wonder if it might be easier for me to
spawn off tcpdump in the background and process its output (as it seems you
are doing).

Any feelings on the subject?

Thanks,
CxT

I've been able to incorporate pcap into Cocoa programs without much problem. I am only processing tcpdump files and not gathering data directly from a network interface.
