How can I browse for all services regardless of their service type using Bonjour ?
NSNetServiceBrowser can browse for specific servie type - "_music._tcp". Code example:
NSNetServiceBrowser *serviceBrowser;
serviceBrowser = [[NSNetServiceBrowser alloc] init];
[serviceBrowser setDelegate:delegateObject];
[serviceBrowser searchForServicesOfType:@"_music._tcp" inDomain:@""];
With this code I get all services that have "_music._tcp" service type. For creating service I'm using Network Beacon app.
But I need to find all services regardless of their service type. The answer from this post - doesn't help.
When I'm using:
@"_services._dns-sd._udp."
instead of:
@"_music._tcp."
I get nothing.
I'm beginner iOS programming - I'll be very grateful for the help. Code I used from this book chapter 18.
My code: BonjourViewController.m
@implementation BonjourViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[self browseServices];
[super viewDidLoad];
}
-(NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return [self.services count];
}
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier forIndexPath:indexPath];
if (!cell)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
//--display the name of each service---
cell.textLabel.text = [[self.services objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]name];
return cell;
}
-(void)netServiceBrowser:(NSNetServiceBrowser *)aNetServiceBrowser didFindService:(NSNetService *)aNetService moreComing:(BOOL)moreComing
{
[self.services addObject:aNetService];
_debug.text = [_debug.text stringByAppendingString:@"Found service. Resolving address ...\n"];
[self resolveIPAddress:aNetService];
}

port = socketAddres->sin_port;
_debug.text = [_debug.text stringByAppendingFormat:@"Resolved: %@-->%@:%u\n", [sender hostName], ipString, port];
}
[self.tbView reloadData];
}
