Overview
At the core of all of the SocketTools networking libraries is the
Windows Sockets API. This provides a low level interface for sending
and receiving data over the Internet or a local intranet using the
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and/or User Datagram Protocol
(UDP). The SocketWrench library provides a simpler interface to the
Windows Sockets API, without sacrificing features or functionality.
Using SocketWrench, you can easily create client and server applications
while avoiding many of the mundane tasks and common problems that
developers face when building Internet applications.
This library supports secure connections using the TLS 1.2
protocol and can also be used to create secure, customized server
applications. Both implicit and explicit TLS connections are
supported, enabling the library to work with a wide variety of client
and server applications without requiring that you use third-party
libraries or Microsoft's CryptoAPI.
Requirements
The SocketTools Library Edition libraries are compatible with any
programming language which supports calling functions exported from a
standard dynamic link library (DLL). If you are using Visual C++ 6.0
it is required that you have Service Pack 6 (SP6) installed. You should
install all updates for your development tools and have the current
Windows SDK installed. The minimum recommended version of Visual Studio
is Visual Studio 2010.
This library is supported on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and
later versions of the desktop and server platforms. If you are using
Windows 7, you must have Service Pack 1 (SP1) installed as a minimum
requirement. It is recommended that you install the current service
pack and all critical updates available for your version of the
operating system.
This library provides an implementation of a multithreaded server
which should only be used with languages that support the creation of
multithreaded applications. It is important that you do not link against
static libraries which were not built with support for threading.
This product includes both 32-bit and 64-bit libraries. Native
64-bit CPU support requires the 64-bit version of Windows 7 or later
versions of the Windows operating system.
Distribution
When you distribute your application that uses this library, it is
recommended that you install the file in the same folder as your
application executable. If you install the library into a shared
location on the system, it is important that you distribute the
correct version for the target platform and it should be registered
as a shared DLL. This is a standard Windows dynamic link library, not
an ActiveX component, and does not require COM registration.
