Hi Group, I am surprised to see that the Android doesn't yet have a zeroconf stack as part of its API. Zeroconf allows you to find services (eg Web Servers, Instant Messaging peers, SIP) on a given network with minimal effort, something a mobile device going to new places I would envisage doing alot.
Obvious starting points could be Avahi (as found in most major linux distributions and jmdns). Apple also have the open source mDNSResponder. (zeroconf is found on the iPhone under the name Bonjour). For more information see: http://www.zeroconf.org. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
