Whats the client? about libirecovery

[nikias]

libirecovery is now officially at https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libirecovery - to answer your question: you don't need to know the type because it is returned in that parameter. Just use an irecv_client_t client and then pass &client as the parameter. When the function successfully returns it will point to an irecv_client_t 'handle' that you can use for the rest of the API.

What i'm trying to do, for a basic understanding is just reboot the device via usb.
irecv_client_t client;
irecv_open_with_ecid(&client, (unsigned long long)"PHONE ECID");
irecv_reboot(client);

but at irecv_reboot(client); i'm getting a access violation

Is there a quick example of doing this?

Casting the phone ecid from a string to unsigned long long will not work. You need it as a numerical value. Also check for errors, I bet that client is NULL before calling irecv_reboot in your case.

irecv_client_t client;
irecv_open_with_ecid(&client, (unsigned long long)0xMY_ECID);
if (client == NULL) printf("WE got nothing"); else irecv_reboot(client);

at irecv_reboot(client); still getting access violation, i have the right ECID copied from 3uTools & its in recovery 0x1281
