This is a simple program which demonstrates how to query the kernel
|
|
routing mechanism using only a UDP socket. Pass it a hostname on
|
|
the command line (sorry, it doesn't parse dotted decimal) and it will
|
|
print out an IP address which names the interface over which UDP
|
|
packets intended for that destination would be sent.
|
|
A more sophisticated program might use the list obtained from SIOCGIFCONF
|
|
to match the address with an interface name, but applications programmers
|
|
much more often need to know the address of the interface rather than
|
|
the name.
