在Cocoa中获取Mac型号

Question

I'm making a OS X app where I need to get the Mac model, for example:

iMac11,3
MacBook3,1

And so on. Is there any class, or function to get it?

Answer 1

This information is available via. sysctl :

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/sysctl.h>

size_t len = 0;
sysctlbyname("hw.model", NULL, &len, NULL, 0);
if (len) {
    char *model = malloc(len*sizeof(char));
    sysctlbyname("hw.model", model, &len, NULL, 0);
    printf("%s\n", model);
    free(model);
}

Answer 2

The API for that would be in the IOKit. Looking in the IORegistryExplorer app on my laptop, I see that the first node from the root of the IOService tree is an IOPlatformExpertDevice, with a entry under the key "model" equal to "MacBookPro6,1"

Answer 3

While not using a direct Cocoa API, you could use NSTask to execute the "system_profiler" command line tool. If you execute the tool as: "system_profiler SPHardwareDataType" it will give you a smaller output which could be filtered to extract the model identifier.

Update

I found an example using sysctl programmatically:

int mib[2];
size_t len = 0;
char *rstring = NULL;

mib[0] = CTL_HW;
mib[1] = HW_MODEL;
sysctl( mib, 2, NULL, &len, NULL, 0 );
rstring = malloc( len );
sysctl( mib, 2, rstring, &len, NULL, 0 );
NSLog(@"%s", rstring );
free( rstring );
rstring = NULL;

我不确定是否有通过Cocoa获取它的确切方法，但你可以使用NSTask并通过shell获取它。

sysctl hw.model
