This question already has an answer here:
How to do an ICMP ping in a WinRT Modern UI application?
Ping is not implemented in WinRT currently (see related question here) and the previous strategies in Silverlight being:
- Use a WCF Service
- Call Javascript which then calls an ActiveX component
- Give up (here)
Vasily here uses http to 'ping' a webserver on a specific port using StreamSocket which supports network communication using a TCP socket.
Perhaps Windows.Networking.Sockets is the highest level API I have to use if I want to write my own ICMP library for WinRT..
This implementation uses System.Net.Sockets to make an ICMP echo request - in standard .NET
This WinRT sample uses the Windows.Networking.Sockets.DatagramSocket class to create a UDP socket. I think what I need is raw sockets to do ICMP.
Is this even possible in the WinRT sandbox to ICMP ping?
Something like:
try { using (var tcpClient = new StreamSocket()) { await tcpClient.ConnectAsync( new Windows.Networking.HostName(HostName), PortNumber, SocketProtectionLevel.PlainSocket); var localIp = tcpClient.Information.LocalAddress.DisplayName; var remoteIp = tcpClient.Information.RemoteAddress.DisplayName; ConnectionAttemptInformation = String.Format("Success, remote server contacted at IP address {0}", remoteIp); tcpClient.Dispose(); } } catch (Exception ex) { if (ex.HResult == -2147013895) { ConnectionAttemptInformation = "Error: No such host is known"; } else if (ex.HResult == -2147014836) { ConnectionAttemptInformation = "Error: Timeout when connecting (check hostname and port)"; } else { ConnectionAttemptInformation = "Error: Exception returned from network stack: " + ex.Message; } } finally { ConnectionInProgress = false; }
