Minimal steps
| 1. | Add sock.tbs and sock.tbh files to your project (they are in current_library_set\sock\trunk). |
| 2. | Add include "sock\trunk\sock.tbh" to the includes section of the global.tbh file. |
| 3. | Call sock_get() whenever you need a free socket. Observe the result -- if it is 255 then there are no free sockets available! |
| 4. | Call sock_release() when you no longer need a particular socket. This way, the socket can be reused by something else in your code. |
Additional recommended steps
| 1. | The use of sock_who_uses() is optional. This call will return a string signature left by the caller when obtaining the socket. SOCK_MAX_SIGNATURE_LEN must be >0 for signatures to be saved. |
We have provided a code snippet illustrating the use of the SOCK library.
