[libdnet-devel] intf.get_dst() problem on OSX

[Darryl R. <da...@oe...>]

Hey All,

Trying to write a problem that is cross-platform. So far I've got it working fine on Win32.
Next step is OSX.

I'm having a problem with the intf.get_dst() call though:

| Python 2.3.5 (#1, Mar 20 2005, 20:38:20)
| [GCC 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1809)] on darwin
| Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
| >>> import dnet
| >>> it = dnet.intf()
| >>> it.get_dst(dnet.addr('0.0.0.0'))
| {'addr': 127.0.0.1/8, 'mtu': 16384, 'flags': 35, 'type': 24,
| 'alias_addrs': [::1, fe80:1::1/64], 'name': 'lo0'}

As you can see it's returning the loopback interface as the interface for the default route.
This definitely is not correct, it should be en1.

If I use a real IP address, then it returns the correct information.

Anyone have any ideas?

Regards
Darryl
