|
The minder is a small network application for automatic maintenance
|
|
of peer lists. The application accepts connections from other network
|
|
entities ("minions") and returns a list of other identitical minions.
|
|
|
|
When a minion contacts the minder, the minion supplies its type,
|
|
network port and address, and its unique node identification.
|
|
|
|
The framework for building a minion is included in the C++ Sockets
|
|
Library. The framework consists of classes representing connections
|
|
between minion-minder and minion-minion, and also a controller class
|
|
for them both.
|
|
|
|
The minder itself is also built with the C++ Sockets Library as its
|
|
foundation.
