==========
|
|
|
|
This is an experimental kioslave which presents the network.
|
|
It also includes a library which models the network, the devices, and services,
|
|
and could be reused by other code.
|
|
|
|
Please contact the author Friedrich W. H. Kossebau <kossebau@kde.org> for any further questions.
|
|
Cooperation in this area is welcome :)

ioslave
|
|
-------
|
|
The ioslave lists the local network as represented by the
|
|
The protocol name is "network", so enter "network:/" to see your local network.
|
|
Currently, due to synchronisation problems, the network data is fetched from the
|
|
kded network module via D-Bus, instead of using the network library directly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
kded
|
|
----
|
|
A kded module to emit KDirNotify signals as needed if the network structure changes.
|
|
|
|
That way all users of the network kioslave and listening to KDirNotify can update the view,
|
|
e.g. Dolphin, Konqueror and the KDElibs file dialogs.
|
|
It also offers the data of the network structure over D-Bus, as currently used by the ioslave.
|
|
|
|
|
|
network
|
|
-------
|
|
A library which models the network with all its devices and the services offered by them.
|
|
|
|
Currently it uses KDNSSD, the KDElibs interface to the zeroconf service discovery system,
|
|
as the engine to find about the content of network structure. Later on this library should
|
|
support different backends concurrently (also SLP, UPnP, Windows related stuff like smb,
|
|
including undiscoverable/hidden but user/admin entered ones).
|
|
If this works out this library might end in KDElibs solid module.
