• gssdp 1.6
• libxml2 2.13

Should work with anything supported by the dependencies above. Tested on Linux, macOS, and Windows (build with MinGW).

Example usage

This example assumes there are 4 or less Roku devices on the local network and finds them, then prints their names.

#include <rokuecp.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
 
int main() {
    // Set up an array of 4 strings with size 30
    char* urlList[4];
    for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
        urlList[i] = malloc(30);
    }
    // Find Roku devices on local network and fill urlList
    int devicesFound = findRokuDevices(NULL, 4, 30, urlList);
 
    // Get info about found devices and print their names
    for (int i = 0; i < devicesFound; i++) {
        RokuDevice device;
        getRokuDevice(urlList[i], &device);
        printf("Device %d: %s\n", i + 1, device.name);
    }
 
    // Don't forget to free the URL list!
    for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
        free(urlList[i]);
    }
}
