[Dev-C++] monitoring traffic, how?

[Zodiaq <zo...@ac...>]

Hello all Dev-C++ users and other hackers,

  Something very strange happened to me recently and then I've decided
to write small app to monitor how much data is being send and received
by my computer... I looked at MSDN, Platform SDK and some other sites
but couldn't find how to do what I want... this propably can't be
socket functions because these are only for creating and destroying
connections TCP and UDP... TAPI propably not because these are all
about Telophone lines... so where to start? How to monitor TCP/IP
trafic? Well for now I just want to get only butes send per second and
received per second... I don't want analize datagrams or something
like these... Any help?

-_-_-_-_-
regards, Zodiaq...

Depends on what kind of monitoring to you want.
The simple monitoring is no of packet send / recieve and this wou can do 
by click on open connection :-) in system tray.
For more treffic control / monitor you need a firewall so to write a 
firewall is compicated and you need to read DDK form
microsoft
http://www.microsoft.com/ddk <http://www.microsoft.com/ddk> because you 
need to write a driver so isn't so easy afterall.You must write a driver 
below all protocols an up on netwoark card (modem whatever)
so download a firewall eg zonealarm (serach on google i don't know the link)

You don´t need a driver for getting this info. There are numerous small
applications which give you that info, some with source, like:
http://gamma.nic.fi/~rainy/Rainmeter.html which is extensible by your own
plugins and is GPLed.

Yeah, nice software, but I don't have time to analize how it works...
instead someone on newsgroup gave me info how to do what I want... the
answer is very simple - IP helper API... just simple like that... I'm
already building my simple app that monitor data flow through my
interfaces... and now I need SOME MORE HELP...

Does anybody know (or have some example) how to properly build header
control that could work on strings (edit controls?) ? Well, I found
how to build header, but how to make it work (make it move data below
it) with some edit controls... I have problems understanding how it
works - header and rich edit ? Well, when I put header control inside
rich edit I can normally put text inside rich edit - and that text
destroys header(writes over)... which is BAD! ;-] Any help
apreciated...

Yeah, I know about that, and I know about perfmon... but I just want
write something similar by my own - something to show me bytes
received and send, nothing more... so I have to build driver for that?
Or are there any simplier methods?
