Tizen Native API  6.0
Network Monitoring Wi-Fi AP

The Network Monitoring API provides functions for getting Wi-Fi AP information.

Required Header

#include <inm.h>

Overview

This set of functions is used to get Wi-Fi AP related information. To use This kind of APIs, You should create a inm handle using inm_initialize(). After that, you need to get connection handle using inm_wifi_get_connected_ap(), inm_wifi_foreach_found_ap(). You should destroy the created ap handle if you do not need it anymore. You should destroy the created inm handle if you do not need it anymore.
