Hi,

SDL_net hasn't been on Nokia's tablets for quite some time, so it was
dropped from Chinook SDK. You can find the Chinook API documents in

http://maemo.org/development/documentation/apis/4-x/

Probably libconic is the interesting library, and besides that just normal
Linux networking API. I'm also in the progress of getting an updated
Connectivity howto out with some examples of libconic's use.

Best regards,
Terje

libconic API. is there more besides

Hi,

Please hold on for a some days more. We have a bunch of documents that we
are reviewing to get them out. In that queue there's an updated version of
the connectivity document with examples of libconic's usage.

Best regards,
Terje

Tripti,
there is a small example of libconic use in the "Maemo 4.0 Porting
Guide"[1], specifically in the "Network Changes"[2] section.

Re: Fwd: Network library on Maemo 4 [In reply to]

There is something I don't understand.
Does the libconic library handle TCP sockets ?
Terje, I really need your documents and examples ;)

A diff from 3.2 and 4.0 libconic's headers show that the only changes
are in the comments (Renaming type from OssoIc* to ConIc*). The same
applies to this [1] version of libconic.

So, looks like that the bora/3.2 guide and examples can work without
further modifications in chinook/4.0, unless there are other changes
not documented (yet).

libconic deals only with requesting a network connection from icd. No
sockets of any kind are handled.

There are no API changes, only bugfixes. The previous document is very
much usable.

Cheers,

Patrik
