Is there something like “getStreamsToHost” on a real iPhone device?

Question

I want to write NSOutputStream to a server with apple code sample:

NSURL *website = [NSURL URLWithString:str_IP];
NSHost *host = [NSHost hostWithName:[website host]];
[NSStream getStreamsToHost:host port:1100 inputStream:nil outputStream:&oStream];
[oStream retain];
[oStream setDelegate:self];
[oStream scheduleInRunLoop:[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] forMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode];
[oStream open];

These codes work well on the iPhone simulator, but when I create it on a real device. Two warnings appear. The problem is this:

1) NSHost class does not belong to iphone os library

2) getStreamsToHost not found either

Any suggestions on an alternative method or class that can be used on a real device?

CFWriteStream NSOutputStream, CFStreamCreatePairWithSocketToHost :

CFReadStreamRef readStream = NULL;
CFWriteStreamRef writeStream = NULL;
CFStreamCreatePairWithSocketToHost(kCFAllocatorDefault, (CFStringRef)host, port, &readStream, &writeStream);
if (readStream && writeStream) {
    CFReadStreamSetProperty(readStream, kCFStreamPropertyShouldCloseNativeSocket, kCFBooleanTrue);
    CFWriteStreamSetProperty(writeStream, kCFStreamPropertyShouldCloseNativeSocket, kCFBooleanTrue);

    inputStream = (NSInputStream *)readStream;
    [inputStream retain];
    [inputStream setDelegate:self];
    [inputStream scheduleInRunLoop:[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] forMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode];
    [inputStream open];

    outputStream = (NSOutputStream *)writeStream;
    [outputStream retain];
    [outputStream setDelegate:self];
    [outputStream scheduleInRunLoop:[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] forMode:NSDefaultRunLoopMode];
    [outputStream open];
}

if (readStream)
    CFRelease(readStream);

if (writeStream)
    CFRelease(writeStream);
