#pragma mark * DNSSDService |
// DNSSDService represents a service discovered on the network. You can use it to |
// resolve that service, and get a DNS name and port to connect to. |
@interface DNSSDService : NSObject <NSCopying> |
- (id)initWithDomain:(NSString *)domain type:(NSString *)type name:(NSString *)name; |
// In most cases you don't need to construct a DNSSDService object because you get it |
// back from a DNSSDBrowser. However, if you do need to construct one, it's fine to |
// do so by calling this method. |
// |
// domain, type and name must not be nil or the empty string. type must be of the |
// form "_foo._tcp." or "_foo._udp." (possibly without the trailing dot, see below). |
// |
// domain and type should include the trailing dot; if they don't, one is added |
// and that change is reflected in the domain and type properties. |
// |
// domain and type must not include a leading dot. |
// DNSSDService implements -isEqual: based on a comparison of the domain, type and name, and |
// it implements -hash correspondingly. This allows you to use DNSSDService objects in sets, |
// as dictionary keys, and so on. |
// |
// IMPORTANT: This uses case-sensitive comparison. In general DNS is case insensitive. |
// DNS-SD will always pass you services with a consistent case, so using case sensitive |
// comparison here is not a problem. You might run into problems, however, if you do |
// odd things like manually create a DNSSDService with the domain set to "LOCAL." instead |
// of "local.". |
// |
// DNSSDService also implements NSCopying. When you copy a service, the copy has the same |
// domain, type and name as the original. However, the copy does not bring across any of |
// the resolution state. Specifically: |
// |
// o If the original was resolving, the copy is not. |
// |
// o If the original had successfully resolved (and thus has resolvedHost and resolvedPort set), |
// these results are not present in the copy. |
// |
// However, because the domain, type and name are copied, and these are the only things |
// considered by -isEqual: and -hash, DNSSDService can be used as a dictionary key. |
// properties that are set up by the init method |
@property (copy, readonly ) NSString * domain; |
@property (copy, readonly ) NSString * type; |
@property (copy, readonly ) NSString * name; |
// properties that you can change any time |
@property (assign, readwrite) id<DNSSDServiceDelegate> delegate; |
- (void)startResolve; |
// Starts a resolve. Starting a resolve on a service that is currently resolving |
// is a no-op. If the resolve does not complete within 30 seconds, it will fail |
// with a time out. |
- (void)stop; |
// Stops a resolve. Stopping a resolve on a service that is not resolving is a no-op. |
// properties that are set up once the resolve completes |
@property (copy, readonly ) NSString * resolvedHost; |
@property (assign, readonly ) NSUInteger resolvedPort; |

@protocol DNSSDServiceDelegate <NSObject> |
// All delegate methods are called on the main thread. |
@optional |
- (void)dnssdServiceWillResolve:(DNSSDService *)service; |
// Called before the service starts resolving. |
- (void)dnssdServiceDidResolveAddress:(DNSSDService *)service; |
// Called when the service successfully resolves. The resolve will be stopped |
// immediately after this delegate method returns. |
- (void)dnssdService:(DNSSDService *)service didNotResolve:(NSError *)error; |
// Called when the service fails to resolve. The resolve will be stopped |
// immediately after this delegate method returns. |
- (void)dnssdServiceDidStop:(DNSSDService *)service; |
// Called when a resolve stops (except if you call -stop on it). |
