Designed by Stuart Anderson (NCR) with help from Ralph Mor (X Consortium)
</p><div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
This documentation does not completely match the implementation in R6
(as a result of some late changes made in the code). Specifically, support
was added for font server cloning, and conditional compliation was introduced
for client vs. server code.
</p></div></div><div class="chapter"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h1 class="title"><a id="Purposes_and_Goals"></a>Chapter 1. Purposes and Goals</h1></div></div></div><p>The X Transport Interface is intended to combine all system and
transport specific code into a single place in the source tree. This API
should be used by all libraries, clients and servers of the X Window System.
Use of this API should allow the addition of new types of transports and
support for new platforms without making any changes to the source except
in the X Transport Interface code.</p><p>This interface should solve the problem of multiple
<code class="code">#ifdef TRANSPORT</code> and <code class="code">#ifdef PLATFORM</code>
statements scattered throughout the source tree.</p><p>This interface should provide enough functionality to support all
types of protocols, including connection oriented protocols such as X11 and
FS, and connection-less oriented protocols such as XDMCP.</p></div><div class="chapter"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h1 class="title"><a id="Overview_of_the_Interface"></a>Chapter 2. Overview of the Interface</h1></div></div></div><p>
The interface provides an API for use by applications. The functions in
this API perform work that is common to all transports and systems, such
as parsing an address into a host and port number. The functions in this
API call transport specific functions that are contained in a table whose
contents are defined at compile time. This table contains an entry for each
type of transport. Each entry is a record containing mostly pointers to
function that implements the interface for the given transport.
</p><p>
This API does not provide an abstraction for <code class="function">select()</code>
or <code class="function">poll()</code>.
These functions are themselves transport independent, so an additional
interface is not needed for these functions. It is also unclear how such
an interface would affect performance.
</p></div><div class="chapter"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h1 class="title"><a id="Definition_of_Address_Specification_Format"></a>Chapter 3. Definition of Address Specification Format</h1></div></div></div><p>
Addresses are specified in the following syntax,

</p><pre class="synopsis">
<em class="replaceable"><code>protocol</code></em>/<em class="replaceable"><code>host</code></em>:<em class="replaceable"><code>port</code></em>
</pre><p>

where <em class="replaceable"><code>protocol</code></em> specifies a protocol family
or an alias for a protocol family. A definition of common protocol
families is given in a later section.
</p><p>
The <em class="replaceable"><code>host</code></em> part specifies the name of a host or other
transport dependent entity that could be interpreted as a Network Service Access Point
(NSAP).
</p><p>
The <em class="replaceable"><code>port</code></em> part specifies the name of a Transport Service
Access Point (TSAP). The format of the TSAP is defined by the underlying transport
implementation, but it is represented using a string format when it is
part of an address.
</p></div><div class="chapter"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h1 class="title"><a id="Internal_Data_Structures"></a>Chapter 4. Internal Data Structures</h1></div></div></div><div class="toc"><p><strong>Table of Contents</strong></p><dl class="toc"><dt><span class="sect1"><a href="#Xtransport">Xtransport</a></span></dt><dt><span class="sect1"><a href="#XtransConnInfo">XtransConnInfo</a></span></dt></dl></div><p>
There are two major data structures associated with the transport
independent portion of this interface.  Additional data structures
may be used internally by each transport.
</p><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="Xtransport"></a>Xtransport</h2></div></div></div><p>
Each transport supported has an entry in the transport table. The transport
table is an array of Xtransport records. Each record contains all the entry
points for a single transport. This record is defined as:

This API is included in each library and server that uses it. The API may
be used by the library, but it is not added to the public API for that
library. This interface is simply an implementation facilitator. This API
contains a low level set of core primitives, and a few utility functions
that are built on top of the primitives.  The utility functions exist to
provide a more familiar interface that can be used to port existing code.
</p><p>
A macro is defined in Xtrans.h for TRANS(func) that creates a unique function
name depending on where the code is compiled. For example, when built for
Xlib, <code class="function">TRANS(OpenCOTSClient)</code> becomes
<code class="function">_X11TransOpenCOTSClient</code>.
</p><p>
All failures are considered fatal, and the connection should be closed
and re-established if desired. In most cases, however, the value of
errno will be available for debugging purposes.

This function creates a Connection-Oriented Transport that is
suitable for use by a client. The parameter <em class="parameter"><code>address</code></em>
contains the full address of the server to which this endpoint will be
connected.  This function returns an opaque transport connection object on
success, or <code class="constant">NULL</code> on failure.

This section refers to the prototype implementation that is being developed
concurrently with this document. This prototype has been able to flush out many
details and problems as the specification was being developed.
</p><p>
In X11R6, all of the source code for this interface was located in
<code class="filename">xc/lib/xtrans</code>.
</p><p>
In X11R7, all of the source code for this interface is delivered via
the <code class="systemitem">lib/libxtrans</code> modular package from X.Org,
and is installed under
<code class="filename"><em class="replaceable"><code>${prefix}</code></em>/X11/Xtrans</code>
so that other modules may find it when they build.
</p><p>
All functions names in the source are of the format
<code class="function">TRANS(func)()</code>. The
<code class="function">TRANS()</code>
macro is defined as
</p><pre class="programlisting">
#define TRANS(func) _PROTOCOLTrans##func
</pre><p>
</p><p>
<span class="symbol">PROTOCOL</span> will be uniquely defined in each directory
where this code is compiled.
<span class="symbol">PROTOCOL</span> will be defined to be the name of the protocol
that is implemented by the library or server, such as X11, FS, and ICE.
</p><p>
All libraries and servers that use the X Transport Interface should have a new
file called <code class="filename"><em class="replaceable"><code>TRANSPORT</code></em>trans.c</code>.
This file will include the transports based on the configuration flags
provided by the <code class="filename">configure</code> script. Below is an
example <code class="filename">xfstrans.c</code> for the font server.
</p><pre class="programlisting">
#include "config.h"

#define FONT_t 1
#define TRANS_REOPEN 1
#define TRANS_SERVER 1

#include &lt;X11/Xtrans/transport.c&gt;
</pre><p>
The source files for this interface are listed below.
</p><div class="variablelist"><table border="0" class="variablelist"><colgroup><col align="left" valign="top" /><col /></colgroup><tbody><tr><td><p><span class="term"><code class="filename">Xtrans.h</code></span></p></td><td><p>

    </p></td></tr></tbody></table></div><p>
The file <code class="filename">Xtransint.h</code> contains much of the transport
related code that was previously in <code class="filename">Xlibint.h</code> and
<code class="filename">Xlibnet.h</code>.
This will make the definitions available for all transport users. This
should also obsolete the equivalent code in other libraries.
