As pointed out in 4297 my privous posting of this inquiry went to the bit bucket....sorry if you have seen it before. Does anyone know of a socket programming interface for the Amiga? I would like to do some development work using sockets for interprocess communication (same system no network).

I don't think there is a socket library (yet!) but there is a package called IPC (InterProcess Communication) on fish 290 (I think). Also, have you looked into messages or are you particularly restricted to a socket-like interface? write a socket library.. I'm sure that would make lots of people happy! john | |||||

RE: .1 >Also, have you looked into messages or are you particularly restricted to >a socket-like interface? Yeh, I need to do something the is transportable to the third lowest operating system on earth ( Messy Dos and OS/2 being the only things lower than a eunuch.). >write a socket library.. I'm sure that would make lots of people happy! I was afraid some wise guy might say that. John | |||||

> I was afraid some wise guy might say that. It's not as bad as it sounds. You could write routines that have the same function interface as the socket stuff which do the message stuff for amiga and whatever for msdos (pray? ;-) ) john | |||||
