Hi all,
I've to write an application which will be used on a network. The
application will consist of a daemon which is listening on all the
computers on the network and a Mono GUI application. The thing is that I
need to have an easy way to detect all the computers which are running
the daemon so I can send commands. There also will be a special computer
which will be storing central information and I need to know its IP
address too. The only solution to this which I could think of is using
Zeroconf and publishing services on the network. The thing is that I
couldn't find a C# wrapper for libhowl(the Zeroconf C library). So my
options here are writing a wrapper around it(i don't even have an idea
how to do this, only that I have to deal with P/Invoke) or using a
native library.
Look at the interop guide for writing wrappers:
http://www.mono-project.com/Interop_with_Native_Libraries. You could use
SWIG to help generate the wrappers, http://www.swig.org.
