Package equip.net Description

Various networking support classes, including C++ versions of some java.net classes,an abstraction API, JCP (Jim's Communication Protocol, a reliable UDP implementations), a simple service trader and service framework.

Starting points:

• The networking abstraction API, ServerSap and ConnectionSap, with TCP (ServerSapTcp) and JCP (equip.net.ServerSapJcp) implementations.
• A collection of moniker classes for service location, rooted in Moniker (See COM).
• A simple server skeleton (SimpleServer) and service proxy (ServiceProxy).
• A simple name-based service trader interface, TraderProxy, and Java implementation Trader (the C++ implementation is in the module equip_net_Trader).
• A wrapper/helper class for URL, ServerURL.
• A plug-in to provide compression of communication (currently only over TCP} is in module equip_net_tcpcompress (equip.net.tcpcompress).
