Overview of XTI(POSIX) functions

In the following overview of the XTI library functions, several functions are collected together into task-oriented groups.

Function	Description
Connection setup and shutdown over transport endpoints
t_open()	Set up transport endpoint
t_close()	Close transport endpoint
t_bind()	Assign a transport endpoint an address
t_unbind()	Deactivate a transport endpoint
t_connect()	Initiate a connection over a transport endpoint (e.g. by a client)
t_rcvconnect()	Get the status of a previously sent connection request
t_listen()	Test a transport endpoint for pending connection requests (e.g. by a server)
t_accept()	Accept a connection over a transport endpoint (e.g. by a server)
t_rcvrel()	Confirm reception of a request for orderly connection shutdown
t_rcvdis()	Get the cause of a connection shutdown
t_sndrel()	Initiate orderly connection shutdown
t_snddis()	Refuse a connection request or initiate an immediate abort of an established connection
Transferring data between transport endpoints
t_rcv()	Receive data over a transport endpoint (connection-oriented)
t_rcvudata()	Receive datagrams over a transport endpoint (connectionless)
t_rcvuderr()	Receive error information about a sent datagram (connectionless)
t_snd()	Send data over a transport endpoint (connection-oriented)
t_sndudata()	Send datagrams over a transport endpoint (connectionless)
Getting information about transport endpoints
t_getinfo()	Get protocol-specific information
t_getstate()	Get the current state of the transport provider
t_getprotaddr()	Get protocol addresses
t_look()	Get the current event on the transport endpoint reported by the transport provider
Managing options of a transport endpoint
t_optmgmt()	Manage options of a transport endpoint
Using the transport library data structures
t_alloc()	Reserve memory dynamically for data structures declared in the <xti.h> transport library
t_free()	Release memory reserved for data structures declared in the <xti.h> transport library
t_sync()	Synchronize data structures of the <xti.h> transport library
Generating error messages
t_error()	Output error message to standard output
t_strerror()	Output error message text
