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.
