Can you pass variables to MDNS?
Posted: Sat Feb 06, 2016 8:17 pmI'd like to allow the user of my device to store a custom name for the device to use on MDNS, but it doesn't compile if I try to use MDNS.begin(x); Is this simply not supported?

On compile returns "no matching function for call to 'MDNSResponder::begin(String&)'"
Code: Select all
String XX = "TheThing";
if (MDNS.begin(XX)) {
Serial.println("MDNS responder started");
}On compile returns "no matching function for call to 'MDNSResponder::begin(String&)'"

Posted: Sun Feb 07, 2016 6:16 pmif you look at the examples, it is used like this
Code: Select all
if (!MDNS.begin("esp8266")) {
Serial.println("Error setting up MDNS responder!");
while(1) {
delay(1000);
}
}
Serial.println("mDNS responder started");
