# netServiceBrowserDidStopSearch(_:)

Tells the delegate that a search was stopped.

```
optional func netServiceBrowserDidStopSearch(_ browser: NetServiceBrowser)
```

## Parameters

`browser`

Sender of this delegate message.

## Discussion

When `netServiceBrowser` receives a [`stop()`](/documentation/Foundation/NetServiceBrowser/stop()) message from its client, `netServiceBrowser` sends a `netServiceBrowserDidStopSearch:` message to its delegate. The delegate then performs any necessary cleanup.

## See Also

[`-  stop`](/documentation/Foundation/NetServiceBrowser/stop())

Halts a currently running search or resolution.
