I have no idea what code complication problems you may be running in to.

To do ARP, you're going to need to use bpf and form the ARP packet yourself. In order to use BPF, you'll have to run as root. You should not run a process as root if it's linking against UI frameworks or really anything that isn't absolutely necessary. You should create a helper tool. Depending on how the permission check is done with bpf, you may be able to open the bpf device from the helper and pass the file descriptor back to your App.

I am trying to write c/c++ code to implement arp.
I found an implementation on the internet, however I am unable to get it to compile on MAC OS X 10.5 with XCode.


http://www.cs.vu.nl/~cn/arp.c

Can someone here help me get it (or some other implementation) to compile?

As a note I need to implement arp in an application I am writing, but I can not simply shell out to a command line version or arp.
I need to have it directly coded into my app.
