Description : UPnP IGD client lightweight daemon
The UPnP protocol is supported by most home adsl/cable routers and Microsoft Windows 2K/XP. The aim
of the MiniUPnP project is to bring a free software solution to support the "Internet Gateway
Device" part of the protocol. The MediaServer/MediaRenderer UPnP protocol is also becoming very
popular.
Miniupnpc aims at the simplest library possible, with the smallest footprint and no dependencies to
other libraries such as XML parsers or HTTP implementations. All the code is pure ANSI C. Compiled
on a x86 PC, the miniupnp client library have less than 15KB code size. For instance, the upnpc
sample program is around 20KB. The miniupnp daemon is much smaller than any other IGD daemon and is
ideal for using on low memory device for this reason.
