| This directory contains an implementation of the |
| [Open Screen](../../third_party/openscreen) platform API along with utility |
| functions, using the `//base` and `//net` directories in Chromium. |
| |
| Any Chromium target that (indirectly) depends on |
| `//third_party/openscreen/src/platform:api` must also (indirectly) depend on one |
| of two components provided by this component. In nearly all cases, the dependency |
| should be in the same `deps` as `//third_party/openscreen/src/platform:api`. |
| Most external targets should depend on `//components/openscreen_platform`. |
| Targets that cannot use the Network Service should instead depend on |
| `//components/openscreen_platform:openscreen_platform_using_net_sockets`, which |
| uses a `//net`-based implementation of `UdpSocket`. These two targets are |
| incompatible with each other. |
| |
| A very small set of intermediary targets that are used by both types of targets |
| above depend directly on |
| `//components/openscreen_platform:openscreen_platform_without_sockets` and |
| push the requirement to depend on one of the two public targets up to the |
| dependency chain. |
