/**
|
|
* KServiceRegistry allows you to announce your service using SLP (RFC 2608).
|
|
*
|
|
* Use KServiceRegistry to announce a service. The service will be valid
|
|
* until its lifespan ends, you unregister it or delete the KServiceRegistry,
|
|
* whatever comes first.
|
|
* A service will be described using a Service URL and an optional list of
|
|
* attributes. The syntax for a simple Service URL is
|
|
* <pre>
|
|
* service:%srvtype%://%addrspec%
|
|
* </pre>
|
|
* where "%srvtype%" specifies the protocol and "%addrspec5" the address.
|
|
* Examples of valid Service URLs are "service:http://www.kde.org",
|
|
* "service:lpr://printer.example.org/myqueure" and
|
|
* "service:http://your.server.org:8080".
|
|
* To provide more information about your service than just the protocol,
|
|
* port and address you can use abstract service types.
|
|
* A Service URL that uses an abstract service type has the form
|
|
* <pre>
|
|
* service:%abstract-type%:%concrete-type%
|
|
* </pre>
|
|
* where %abstract-type% describes the kind of service and %concrete-type% specifies
|
|
* the protocol and address. Examples are
|
|
* "service:printer:lpr://printer.example.com/lp0" and
|
|
* "service:printer:ipp://printer.example.com/".
|
|
* Note that you cannot invent you own types but only take those that are
|
|
* registered at IANA. To create your own service type you must become a naming
|
|
* authority. Then you can use service types of the form
|
|
* "%srvtype%.%naming-authority%". Assuming that "kde" is the id of a
|
|
* IANA-registered naming authority, a valid Service URL would be
|
|
* "service:weatherp.kde://weather.example.com". You can find more information
|
|
* about Service URLs in the IETF RFCs 2608 and 3224.
|
|
* Additionally each service can have one or more attributes to carry
|
|
* additional information about the service. Attributes are a simple pair of
|
|
* strings, one for the attributes name and one for the value. They can be
|
|
* used, for example, to describe the type of a printer or the email address
|
|
* of an administrator.
|
|
*
|
|
* Service templates can be used to describe an abstract type, including the
|
|
* syntax of the concrete type and the attributes. The use of service
|
|
* templates is described in RFC 2609, you can find the existing service
|
|
* templates at http://www.iana.org/assignments/svrloc-templates.htm .
|
|
*
|
|
* Example:
|
|
* <pre>
|
|
* KServiceRegistry ksr;
|
|
* KInetAddress kia = KInetAddress->getLocalAddress();
|
|
* ksr.registerService(QString("service:remotedesktop.kde:vnc://%1:0").arg(kia->nodeName()),
|
|
* "(type=shared)");
|
|
* delete kia;
|
|
* </pre>
