DESCRIPTION
libopendaap currently exposes two classes, Client and ClientHost. DAAP_Client can be used to manage a set of available DAAP clients. On Creation, DAAP_Client will create several threads using the available system threads libraries. It will watch the network using Apple's mDNS protocol for new DAAP shares to become available, and report their existance to the installed DAAP_fnClientStatus callback. DAAP_Client_EnumerateHosts can then be used to enumerate the available hosts. DAAP_ClientHost_AddRef must be used if a pointer to a host is to be held. Furhter manipulation of the hosts is then possible with the DAAP_ClientHost interface. For futhre information about the available methods, please consult the documentation in the header file.

ENUMERATION TYPES
typedef enum {
    DAAP_STATUS_error = -2,
    DAAP_STATUS_dying = -1,
    DAAP_STATUS_idle = 0,
    DAAP_STATUS_connecting,
    DAAP_STATUS_negotiating,
    DAAP_STATUS_updating,
    DAAP_STATUS_downloading,
    DAAP_STATUS_hostschanged } DAAP_Status; The DAAP_Status enumeration type contains a list of possible status callback commands.
