- Welcome developers,
-
- Enclosed is the source to Waterloo TCP, a library which provides TCP/UDP/IP
- services to your programs. With this library, you can write to TCP/IP
- connections as easily as you can write to DOS files.
-
- This project is still relatively young as I only started it in late October
- of 1990. But there are several applications which already use the library
- and the ease of use is making it a popular choice for many developers.
-
- Take a look at the existing applications and see if this library suits your
- particular needs. Also read copyright.h to see if you can live with the
- restrictions. If so, I would recommend getting the programmer's
- reference guide which is described in the readme file. It will prove
- useful and the proceeds go into manuals and development tools for continued
- development.
-
- Note that the user applications should include <tcp.h> not <wattcp.h>.
- Why not? To separate the tcp kernal and application layers and to keep
- your code compatible with future versions of the kernal. Look at examples
- in the APPS subdirectory rather than the files in SRC which the kernal
- source.
-
- There are about 50 user functions which should probably satisfy most of
- your needs. If you make some improvements to the kernal send them back
- to me and I'll try to incorporate them.
-
- Use and Enjoy,
-
- Erick Engelke
