Berkeley Socket API

Most of RTIP-32's functionality is made available through a comprehensive subset of the Berkeley Unix Socket API with the following functions:

The socket API as implemented by RTIP-32 is documented in the RTIP-32 Reference Manual. As most TCP/IP stacks implement the socket API, porting existing networking applications should be simple. The Socket API is declared in header file Socket.h and is implemented in library rtip.lib.

Note that a number of advanced features as well as the functionality of higher level protocol add-ons are made available through the RTIP-32 Native API.

The Berkley Socket API does not support encrypted/secure connections. Applications can use the Simplified Networking API with encryption support, declared in header file Include\Sock.h. It is similar to the Berkeley Socket API, but easier to use. It supports UDP, TCP, and TCP encrypted sockets.
