NAME
xopen_networking - X/Open Networking Interfaces
DESCRIPTION
X/Open has defined XTI, Sockets, and IP Address Resolution interfaces in X/Open CAE Specification,
Networking Services, Issue 4 (UNIX 95) and X/Open CAE Specification, Networking Services, Issue 5
(UNIX 98). For a detailed description of these interfaces, please refer to the above specifications or to the
book Go Solo , which is published by Prentice Hall. Go Solo also includes a CD ROM which contains the
above specification to other SPEC 1170 man pages.
COMPILING ENVIRONMENT
Using any of the Networking Services(XTI, sockets) requires
_XOPEN_SOURCE to be defined and
_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
to be defined with the value
1.
The
_XOPEN_SOURCE
macro may be defined automatically by the compilation environment, but to
ensure portability the application should define the macro either on the compilation command line, or at
the beginning of each source module prior to the inclusion of any headers. The
_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
macro will not be automatically defined by the compilation environment.
The
c89 and cc utilities recognize the additional
-l operand for standard libraries:
-l xnet This operand makes visible all functions referenced in the above specification
by having the linker search the appropriate X/Open networking interface
libraries. If you also specify the -l c operand to explicitly specify the C
library, you must specify the -l xnet operand before you specify the -l c
operand.
AUTHOR
X/Open XTI, Sockets , and IP Address Resolution interfaces were developed by X/Open Company Limited.
