GUPnP

=====

GUPnP is an object-oriented open source framework for creating UPnP devices and

control points, written in C using GObject and libsoup. The GUPnP API is

intended to be easy to use, efficient and flexible.

The GUPnP framework consists of the following two libraries:

  * GSSDP implements resource discovery and announcement over SSDP.

  * GUPnP implements the UPnP specification: resource announcement and

    discovery, description, control, event notification, and presentation

    (GUPnP includes basic web server functionality through libsoup). GUPnP does

    not include helpers for construction or control of specific standardized

    resources (e.g. MediaServer); this is left for higher level libraries

    utilizing the GUPnP framework.

The GUPnP framework was born out of frustration with libupnp and its mess of

threads. GUPnP is entirely single-threaded (though asynchronous), integrates

with the GLib main loop, and provides the same set of features as libupnp while

hiding most of the UPnP internals through an elegant object-oriented design.

GUPnP is free software released under the GNU LGPL.
