CyberLink for C++

Overview

CyberLink for C++ is a development package for UPnP™ developers. CyberLink controls these protocols automatically, and supports to create your devices and control points quickly.

UPnP™ * architecture is an open network to enable discovery and control of networked devices and services, such as media servers and players at home.

UPnP™ * protocols are based on many standard, such as GENA, SSDP, SOAP, HTTPU and HTTP. Therefore you have to understand and implement these protocols to create your devices of UPnP™.

* UPnP ™ is a certification mark of the UPnP™ Implementers Corporation.
