Bonjour and sending data

Hi,

I have an application that works with Bonjour and so far I can successfully publish services and detect services from others running my app. However, I'm strugling with how I send data to these services and how I receive data from them. I understand that this has nothing to do with Bonjour itself, but is more of a socket related issue.

I don't have much experience with BSD sockets, but I know that the NSFileHandle class can act as a socket. However, I don't know how to actually use this with Bonjour. I've seen the PictureSharing example, but I don't really understand the sending/receiving data part. The publishing part uses an NSFileHandle to send data and the browsing part uses the new NSSocket class to receive the data, but which one should I use for my application (which acts both as server and client).

So basically what I wanna do is: when my app launches, detect all running services and get the data (which is going to be a text file) from them. And also, when my app receives a request, send the data to the app that requested it.

Thanks in advance,

Jesus
