Hi
I'm trying to set up a distributed object client, but can't see any
way to get the local domain (not localhost) to use in
rootProxyForConnectionWithRegisteredName:host: The documentation for
NSConnection states that:
"The host name. The domain name hostName is an Internet domain name
(for example, "sales.anycorp.com"). If hostName is nil or empty, then
only the local host is searched for the named NSConnection object."
But it doesn't offer any info for the presumably common case where you
know the registered name and know it is on the local domain, but is
not localhost.
I looked into NSNetServiceBrowser's searchForServicesOfType:
inDomain: to find the known service name but that requires that you
know the service type. NSConnection, of course makes no mention of
what type it registers distributed objects, so it seems, at least from
available documentation, that you are forced to hard code in domains.
I'm sure this must be just a documentation bug, so how does one
discover the local domain?
Thanks for any help
