TCP transport

A TCP transport provides a configurable TCP client to interact with a TCP server application.

The TCP transport supports the following:

  • The IP address or host name, and the port number to use to connect to a TCP server application
  • The type of TCP connection, connection_oriented or connectionless
  • For some connection options, the ability to receive response data from the TCP server application using the same TCP connection used for sending data.

Assumptions

You are familiar with the concepts of TCP application functions, and the specific TCP server application that will be accessed by the TCP transport.
