Palm OS Network Programming: A Brief Tour of the Net Library

Overview There are two layers to the Net Library: the network protocol stack and the application programming interface. The protocol stack is on the bottom, handling the nitty gritty details of network services. The programming interface sits on top, providing a way for applications to take advantage of these services. This architecture, and the details of its implementation, is the result of years of research and development on a wide variety of platforms. As a developer, one benefits from all this work. Understanding this work and the reasons behind the design decisions will help the user write more efficient and stable network code. This paper explores the Net Library from a distance.
