Programming with the CommKit Function Library
Description
Description
The NIO CommKit Host Interface offers you two application programming
interfaces—the standard AT&T CommKit function library and the HP
Transport Level Interface (TLI) library.
The standard library functions form the basis of all the principal CommKit
applications (dkserver, dk, dkcu, push, and pull), and can be used to write
sophisticated applications.
The HP Transport Level Interface library conforms to an industry standard
API, is well documented, and provides a network-independent mechanism
for writing applications.
