- *** README for TurboTCP 2.1a1 release ***
-
- This version of TurboTCP is now compatible with both the TCL and PowerPlant.
- I have not updated the documentation from the 2.0 release (TCL-only).
- This file describes the essential differences.
-
- WARNING: This is alpha software. I have done *very little* testing of this
- library and you are likely to find bugs in it. If you do, please let me know.
-
-
- *** All users please read: ***
-
- Despite my affiliation with Metrowerks, Inc., this is *not* a Metrowerks
- product. Please contact me directly with any bug reports or feedback regarding
- the library. I prefer e-mail (scouten@uiuc.edu or scouten@metrowerks.com are
- equivalent). If e-mail is not available to you, other addresses can be found
- in the full README file.

- *** TCL users please read: ***
-
- I threw this together to make the library at least minimally compatible
- with PowerPlant. If you're using the TCL, I suggest you use TurboTCP
- version 2.0.1; no major features have been added and 2.0.1 has been
- tested far more rigorously than this version.
-
-
- *** PowerPlant users please read: ***
-
- PowerPlant users will find the library essentially similar to that described
- for TCL. A couple of important differences:
-
- * The helper classes have slightly different inheritance paths.
- CTCPSessionDocPP multiple-inherits from LSingleDoc and CTCPEndpoint...
- nothing too unusual here. The CTCPApplicationPP is a bit different:
- It does not inherit from either LApplication or LDocApplication; instead
- it is an LAttachment subclass which is designed to be attached to
- either application class. It attaches to the event loop to process
- network events.
-
- If these inheritance paths don't suit your preferences or needs, remember
- that these are optional classes. Build your own and use these for models.
-
- * The code for the PowerPlant version of MiniTelnet is REALLY messy.
- I apologize for this. When time permits, I will clean it up and release
- a new version.
-
-
- Thanks... and enjoy. We now return you to your regularly scheduled
- README document. :-)
