[dsdp-tm-dev] Service Discovery beta


Hi,

I have posted the first version of service discovery  in the bugzilla entry 140320 (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=140320).
The release contains the following 4 plugins:
  • org.eclipse.rse.discovery.engine
Service discovery engine and transport implementation.
At the moment only UDP/IP transport is available, but it can be extended to any other like serial, USB, TCP/IP....
  • org.eclipse.rse.discovery.view        
Eclipse view to send service discovery queries and display the results in a tree.
The plugin also provides a sample dialogue to generate and send the dns-sd queries, as an example, it can send the following queries:

_services._mdns._udp.local.        ->  Discover legacy services
_services._dns-sd._udp.local.         ->  Discover services
_dacp._tcp.local.                ->  Discover dacp servers (iTunes)
_http._tcp.local.                         ->  Discover http servers
_ftp._tcp.local.                         ->  Discover ftp servers

Once installed the plugin, the view will be available in Show View -> Service Discovery -> Service Discovery Tree
  • org.eclipse.rse.discovery.model
  • org.eclipse.rse.discovery.model.edit
EMF model and EMF.Edit framework for service discovery. You will need to have EMF in your Eclipse environment; it can be downloaded from http://download.eclipse.org/tools/emf/scripts/downloads.php.

The service discovery can be tested with iTunes (it advertises a dacp service) or using the sample server provided by the Apple Bonjour SDK to advertise dummy services. (http://developer.apple.com/networking/bonjour/download/)

At the moment, service discovery is completely independent from RSE, so the next step will be integrating it into the new device wizard.
Please, take a look at the plugins and don't hesitate to send any question or comment.

Many thanks,
