This one looks great too: https://github.com/tonymillion/Reachability

In the callback method,
static void ReachabilityCallback(SCNetworkReachabilityRef target, SCNetworkReachabilityFlags flags, void* info),
why aren't the flags used? Can't we just stuff it into the Reachability object instead of doing another call SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags when we wish to determine the network status?

Thanks :)

Thanks! Great!

Good Work!
Thanks!

Thanks, it saved time

Thanks, It saved me.... ;)

Thanks, It saved me.... ;)

Has anyone encountered SIGPIPE terminations caused by this code?
