Hello,
I am working on some plugin technology and I have written a static library
that uses rendezvous and this library has to be integrated with the plugin
module. I am using CFNetServices. I have registered a service with one plugin
and I want to browse for that service over the network from other plugin using
Rendezvous.
Plugin 1 ---> Register for some Service.
Plugin 2 ---> Look for that service.
I have used the following code to register the service, The code is from the
Sample program.(CFMRendezvousSample ) Now the problem I am facing is the
Application for which I am writing the plugin gives me a callback for
idleloop() and I want to browse for the services during this. But what I have
found is till then the library hasn't received a callback that it registered
with CFNetServiceBrowserCreate. But if I postpone the browsing to some
othercallback the things are working fine. How do I solve the problem?
I think this is due to the fact that I am scheduling the callbacks with
Application Run Loop and that is asynchhronous.Am I right so if if just remove
the CFNetServiceBrowserScheduleWithRunLoop() the things should work fine. Also
I just want to see this once means I don't care if someone has just started
the service when I have finished my check. Am I on the right track? Pleas
advice.
Thanks
