Hello,
I'm new to ObjC/Cocoa, I'm trying to write an App that is somehow
similar rsync, but for a specific purpose. More or less it does the
following:
* The App is Leopard only. I don't care about Tiger.
* A GUI Cocoa App which scans a certain directory for files and
displays them in a table view. The list of files is represented by an
array of a custom data structure needed by my application (This part
is already done)
The part that I want to start developing now is:
* A Client/Server component in the App, that will allow to instances
to transfer files to do a two way Sync of missing files on either end
* Add Bonjour capability as this App will only be used in local
networks, so I would like them to auto discover each other
* Add "Pairing" feature that allows one instance to only sync with the
paired instance (pretty much like AppleTV)
* Transfer the files back and forth in a multi threaded way, so that I
can maximize the throughput of the network
- I need help to get me started, as I couldn't find any tutorials on
creating a TCP server/client to transfer XML & binary files.
- I also need some help on how to create the threads in the server/client.
- How can I do the pairing option in a reliable manner?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ammar
