Module _Protocols_DNS_SD

Description

Glue for DNS Service Discovery, which is built on top of e.g. Multicast DNS (ZeroConf/Rendezvous/Bonjour). Using this API a Pike program can register a service (e.g. a web server) and have other applications on the local network detect it without additional configuration.

The specification can be found at http://www.dns-sd.org/.

The implementation requires either the dns_ds.h (found in Mac OS X and SunOS 5.11+) or howl.h (part of libhowl on Linux).
