Re: bonjour C API: DNSServiceRegister



Hi Nate,

i'm working on adding bonjour discovery to a research project of mine but am running into a few problems. first, this is a linux program using the C API provided by apple, dns_sd.h. 2nd, i'm just trying to get advertisement working at this point. i have my code included in a select loop, it runs once and successfully calls my callback function, but it doesn't seem to advertise at that point. below is a snippet of console.log with the internal state of the mDNSResponder (this is in panther. i want to get it working on mac before trying in linux.) the services above are registered and browseable, but my service, _mbserver, is not all the way registered. it's also not showing the port i assigned it. any ideas?

Jun 10 10:00:20 gigabit mDNSResponder[173]: 8451: ServiceRegistration gigabit._ssh._tcp.local.
Jun 10 10:00:20 gigabit mDNSResponder[173]: 8195: ServiceRegistration gigabit [00:0d:93:2a:af: 12]._workstation._tcp.local.
Jun 10 10:00:20 gigabit mDNSResponder[173]: DNSServiceRegister nate's mediabroker._mbserver._tcp._local.

Did you ever figure this out? What do you mean by not all the way registered? You discover the port number by resolving the service. You can do this in Terminal...


mDNS -L "nate's mediabroker" _mbserver._tcp. local

Actually, I just noticed one problem in your log message. You've registered in the "_local" domain. You should remove the underscore from the front of "local."

Best Regards,

-Marc
