How to use Bonjour in Mac and Windows

[Bill Vlahos]

Monte,

I need this for both Macintosh and Windows. It seems like we should be able to do this natively in LiveCode rather than an external. Are there any example stacks or commands?

I did find this link on Jan's site but it requires jAVA.

Thanks,

I'd need to re-implement in straight C to go completely cross platform though. With dns-sd available though I haven't considered this to be a huge priority.
