The TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) library allows the user to make TCP connections to the outside world. That is, the user can connect to other processes and machines. The TCPServiceOpen API creates a TCP service object, which will allow a TCP connection to be made from the outside. Once the connection is made, data may be freely written or read along the connection in a bi-directional fashion.
The TCP/IP library is intended to be the basis on which application protocols are applied, such a FTP or HTTP. The functions in the TCP/IP library allow the user to send and receive data, as well as identify errors in the connection or the TCP object.
The OmniMark TCP/IP library (omtcp) depends on the OmniMark I/O Protocol library (omioprot). This means that omioprot must be included before omtcp as follows:
declare function-library "omioprot" include "omioprot.xin" declare function-library "omtcp" include "omtcp.xin"
The following concepts may be of interest if you are using this library in the development of web-based applications:
