Using the UPnP Device Host API

  • Article

The UPnP device host API handles the UPnP-specific steps of discovery, description, control, and eventing.

Applications that use the device host API typically perform the following tasks:

  • Respond to search requests issued by the control point.
  • Parse SOAP and HTTP control commands and return the responses to the control point.
  • Submit events to remote subscribers.
  • Publish information about a device and its services and nested devices on the network.
  • Respond to device queries from the network.
  • Respond to control requests from the control point.
