It also contains the definitions of
isockinet, osockinet, and iosockinet stream
classes.

It also contains the definitions of
isockunix, osockunix, and iosockunix stream
classes.
sockunix.C.................related to sockunix.h
Fork.h.....................wrapper class for fork () system call.
sig.h......................wrapper class Unix signals.
protocol.h, protocol.C.....base class for application protocols.

ftp.h, ftp.C...............FTP application protocol class.
socket++.texi..............texinfo file for libsocket++.a
./test
------
tdunread.cc, tdunwrite.cc..test files for datagram unix sockets
tdinread.cc, tdinwrite.cc..test files for datagram inet sockets
tsunread.cc, tsunwrite.cc..test files for stream unix sockets
tsinread.cc, tsinwrite.cc..test files for stream inet sockets

Copyright Notice:
----------------
Copyright (C) 1992-1996 Gnanasekaran Swaminathan <gs4t@virginia.edu>
Permission is granted to use at your own risk and distribute this software
in source and binary forms provided the above copyright notice and this
paragraph are preserved on all copies. This software is provided "as is"
with no express or implied warranty.
Installation Note:
-----------------
This software has been tested in sun4 running SunOs4.1.3 machine only.
If you are having problems with any aspect of socket++, please
email me at gs4t@virginia.edu. We can fix it together.
This software works with proposed C++ standard iostream library. Thus
if you are using libg++, you need at least libg++-2.7.2.
Your C++ compiler should be able to handle C++ exceptions and templates.
Thus if you are using G++, you need at least gcc-2.7.2.
socket++.texi needs at least texinfo-2.16.
Gcc, libg++, and texinfo are all available for anonymous ftp from
prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu
cd socket++-1.11
env CCC=c++ ./configure --prefix="your favorite location"
make
cd test
make check
If you are using a compiler that is invoked by a command other than c++,
use that command instead on CCC=c++ in the above.
Testing:
-------
make check will automatically run testall.
You can also manually test as follows:
./testall > testall.out
diff -c testall.out testall.exp
If there are any differences, manually check whether
testall.out and testall.exp have the same lines but only their
order is different. If they have the same lines but
for the order, you have installed properly. Otherwise,
try to findout what might be the reason and if you couldn't
please email me with your problem at gs4t@virginia.edu.
Bug reports:
-----------
Send them to me at gs4t@virginia.edu
News:
----

pipestream class implementation. He also knows how to make
the socket++ library a shared library.
Jim Anderson for reporting a bug in sockinet.C
Carl Gay <cgay@skinner.cs.uoregon.edu> for reporting a bug
and a fix in sockinet.C
Oliver Imbusch <flabes@parystec.de> for reporting a bug
in Makefile.in and suggesting several enhancements for sockbuf class.
Dierk Wendt <wendt@lambda.hella.de> for reporting errors
in the socket++ documentation.
Christian Schlichtherle <s_schli@ira.uka.de> for sending
patches for linux support.
Ed Martini <emartini@netcom.com> and taylor d fraley <taylor@mik.uky.edu>
sent in some more linux fixes.
Dan R. Greening <greening@zuni.chaco.com> for a fix in sockstream.h
Mike Christiansen for sending patches for hpux support and
memory leaks. He used purify to check for memory leaks.

to compile under Objectcenter C++ compiler.
Solaris support is still weak, and thus the names
of people who helped to port to solaris is not listed
here yet.

point bugs in tdinwrite.C.
Blair Zajac <blair@olympia.gps.caltech.edu> provided the autoconfig

and a number of bug fixes.
Enjoy!
