Objective-C中的Traceroute

Question

Does anyone know of a code sample in objective-c for traceroute? NOTE- I am looking for a code implementation of traceroute/tcptraceroute, NOT a utility.

Answer 1

You can grab the source code from here . But I agree with diciu, you will not be able to use it on raw sockets on a none-jailbreaked iphone

Answer 2

As far as I know the standard traceroute requires raw sockets (ie root access). On Mac OS X the traceroute binary is setuid:

cristi:~ diciu$ ls -la /usr/sbin/traceroute
-r-sr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  110112 Oct 16 12:28 /usr/sbin/traceroute

I don't think you can use raw sockets on the iPhone - maybe tcptraceroute is an option?

Answer 3

If you want to re-implement traceroute in Objective-C, then you're on your own. If you just want to run traceroute from Objective-C, NSTask will probably be the easiest for you, but it won't be possible on the iPhone.
