https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D194660 --- Comment #8 from Romain Tarti=C3=A8re <romain@FreeBSD.org> --- The "problem" is that this implementation spawns a new process, and this ki= nd of situation should be avoided if possible. Moreover, each netstat implementation will have slight differences in it's output, so the code mig= ht quickly become hard to maintain=E2=80=A6 Since executing netstat look nearly unavoidable on FreeBSD (and maybe MacOS= ), using a switch / case to detect the platform and do the right thing (read /proc/net/route on Linux, run and parse FreeBSD's netstat output on FreeBSD, run and parse MacOS's netstat output on MacOS, =E2=80=A6) instead of trying= one solution and falling back on another would be more elegant (think about the code you changed in attachment 149099). While here, using a full path to the program would be more reliable (in case $PATH does not contain a 'netstat' command or if the user has a custom 'netstat' in his PATH that takes precedence). There may be additional things to take into account, I guess the mono team would help formalizing this. I'll point them here so that they may provide further feedback. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.=
