"iOS and OS X Network Programming Cookbook: Chapter 6 - Bonjour"

This book will cover several UNIX, Apple, and third-party libraries and APIs. It will show the user how to integrate all of these libraries and APIs with their applications.

A lot of developers do not realize that iOS is a full UNIX-based operating system that contains a full set of networking APIs. These APIs can be used to create both client- and server-based applications in the iOS environment as well as OS X. Using the Apple’s Bonjour library you will learn how to publish, find, and connect the services together without hardcoding the connection information. There are also a number of third-party APIs that can be used to easily connect iOS and OS X applications to web-based services. Finally this book will cover several low level libraries like LibNET and LibPCAP on the OS X environment.

Overview:

• Use several Apple and third-party APIs to develop both server and client networked applications
• Shows you how to integrate all of the third-party libraries and APIs with your applications
• Includes sample projects for both iOS and OS X environments
