(In this particular file, we should refer them to the ServerBrowser sample as it is very simple already.)/* SERVERBROWSERNEW.C: This program uses ServerBrowserNew * to initialize the ServerBrowsing SDK */ #include <sb_serverbrowsing.h> void main( void ){ ServerBrowser aServerBrowser = SBServerBrowserNew("gmtest", "HA6zkS", 0, 10, QVERSION_QR2, SBCallback, NULL); }
