Headers and Definitions for XTI

This contains a normative requirement that the contents and structures found in this document appear in the <xti.h> header.

Applications written to compilation environments earlier than those required by this issue of the specification and defining _XOPEN_SOURCE to be less than 500, will have these data structures and constants of certain protocol specific headers automatically exposed by the inclusion of <xti.h> for compatibility. The individual protocol-specific appendices document the providers for which this may be the case.

The function definitions in this appendix conform to the ISO C standard.

Values specified for some of the symbolic constants in this XTI header definition are designated as not mandatory for conformance purposes. These are identified by the comment:


/* value is recommended-only, not mandatory */

in the following definitions.

<xti.h> defines t_scalar_t and t_uscalar_t respectively as a signed and unsigned opaque integral type of equal length of at least 32 bits.

Certain items in this appendix are marked LEGACY. This which means that they are being retained for compatibility with older applications, but have limitations which make them inappropriate for developing portable applications. New applications should use alternative means of obtaining equivalent functionality.
