DomainBrowser Class Reference
from PyKDE4.dnssd import *
Inherits: QObject
Namespace: DNSSD
Detailed Description
DomainBrowser domainbrowser.h DNSSD/DomainBrowser Browses recommended domains for browsing or publishing to.
Usage of this class is very simple. If you are interested in browsing for services, simple do
 DNSSD.DomainBrowser *browser =
     new DNSSD.DomainBrowser(DNSSD.DomainBrowser.Browsing, this);
 connect(browser, SIGNAL(domainAdded(QString)),
         this, SLOT(browsingDomainAdded(QString));
 connect(browser, SIGNAL(domainRemoved(QString)),
         this, SLOT(browsingDomainRemove(QString));
 browser->startBrowse();
If you are interested in domains where you can register services, usage is identical except that you should pass <tt>DNSSD.DomainBrowser.Registering</tt> to the constructor.

| ) | 
Standard constructor
The global DNS-SD configuration (for example, the global Avahi configuration for the Avahi backend) will be used.
- Parameters:
 - 
type the type of domain to search for parent parent object (see QObject documentation)  
- See also:
 - startBrowse() and ServiceBrowser.isAvailable()
 
| domainAdded | ( | self, | ||
| QString | domain | |||
| ) | 
A new domain has been discovered
If the requested DomainType is Browsing, this will also be emitted for the domains specified in the global configuration.
- Parameters:
 - 
domain the name of the domain  
- See also:
 - domainRemoved()
 
- Signal syntax:
 QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("domainAdded(const QString&)"), target_slot)
| domainRemoved | ( | self, | ||
| QString | domain | |||
| ) | 
A domain has disappeared from the browsed list
Emitted when domain has been removed from browsing list or the publishing list (depending on which list was requested in the constructor).
- Parameters:
 - 
domain the name of the domain  
- See also:
 - domainAdded()
 
- Signal syntax:
 QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("domainRemoved(const QString&)"), target_slot)
| QStringList domains | ( | self ) | 
The current known list of domains of the requested DomainType
- Returns:
 - a list of currently known domain names
 
| bool isRunning | ( | self ) | 
Whether the browsing has been started
- Returns:
 - true if startBrowse() has been called, false otherwise
 
| startBrowse | ( | self ) | 
Starts browsing
Only the first call to this function will have any effect.
