Using the UPnP Device Host API (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The UPnP Device Host API handles the UPnP-specific steps of discovery, description, control, and eventing for devices.

Applications that use the Device Host API typically perform the following tasks:

  • Respond to search requests issued by control points.
  • Parse SOAP and HTTP control commands from control points and return the responses to control points.
  • Submit events to subscribing control points.
  • Publish information about the device and its services and nested devices.
  • Respond to device queries from control points.
  • Respond to control requests from control points.
