Re: question about Intel tools for upnptechnologies

Thank you for information. 

I am trying to choose the right UPnP API or SDKs from available ones, to
develop UPnP application on embedded Linux which can be run on
handhelds. 

I thought Intel tools were very helpful for debugging purpose when
developing end-user UPnP application. According to you, it looks like
Intel tools just support for windows development environment, currently.


By the way, can LibUPnP run on embedded Linux on handhelds?

To the best of my knowledge these are Windows only.

The UPnP SDK for Linux does not come with equivalent tools, but with
modest effort they can be written, and I have done similar things in the
past, however it's command line only, not GUI.

But if you have a Windows box available you can run either the Intel
tools or the UPnP examples provided in the Windows SDK (which listens
for all device announcments, shows their descriptions, state status, and
allows you call methods on the device.

This is nothing inherent about Linux or Windows in when it comes to
browsing UPnP devices, tools running on either OS should in theory
produce identical results.
