Detailed Description

Input/Output

This section contains API building blocks to perform network I/O and communications. If provides:

• Socket Abstraction
  A highly portable socket abstraction, runs on all kind of network APIs such as standard BSD socket, Windows socket, Linux kernel socket, PalmOS networking API, etc.

• Network Address Resolution
  Portable address resolution, which implements pj_gethostbyname().

• Socket select() API.
  A portable select() like API (pj_sock_select()) which can be implemented with various back-ends.

• IOQueue: I/O Event Dispatching with Proactor Pattern
  Framework for dispatching network events.
