Hi there!
I wonder if someone could give me a direction about how to make a auto discover funtion for my app.
I believe this need to be done with basic socket functions, but i have no clue on that right now.
I have a server written in delphi that is a http server that provides webservice access. It is in the same network. My common hardware setupe is a Wifi router with a server on a PC and 2 or 3 tablets android with my app.
What I want is to discover the server, that can eventually have the ip changed due the boot order with the router DHCP. I want to make that transparent for the user, when in the same network.
Please, if that helps, consider the server like an b4a android app. I want to understand what I have to do on the b4a side and I try to do the same on delphi, where I have many option. I have a full range of network servers protocols available.
Many thanks
Eduardo Elias
