Reachability Code

reachability

// 1 - nice example from the iPhone for dummies book. Thanks Neal Goldstein! this should be boilerplate reachability
// put in the ApplicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions:
// import reachability + make sure that ARC is turned of through -fno-objc-arc
// also import the System configuration framework
// and inside the Reachability class >
// #import <netinet/in.h>

    NetworkStatus networkStatus = [[Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection] currentReachabilityStatus];
    
    if(networkStatus == NotReachable) {

                              initWithTitle:@"Network Unavailable"
                              message:@"KittyTrip requires an internet connection"
                              delegate:nil
