Mono.Zeroconf throws exceptions if things go wrong, i.e. if Bonjour isn't
running, etc. The problem is that the exceptions thrown are simply "new
Exception()"s, making it quite hard up the stack to determine what actually
happened.
The solution would be to throw a specialized ZeroconfException, or even better,
ZeroconfInitializationException in this case.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disable zeroconf provider
2. Start mzclient and browse
Actual Results:
throw new Exception("No Zeroconf providers could be found or initialized.
Necessary daemon may not be running.");
was triggered in ProviderFactory.cs:114
Expected Results:
throw new ZeroconfInitializationException("No Zeroconf providers could be found
or initialized. Necessary daemon may not be running.");
