Ocamlnet is a collection of OCaml libraries focusing focus on
application-level Internet protocols and conventions.
.
Ocamlnet consists of the following libraries:
* netstring: processing of strings that occur in network context
* netcgi2: portable web applications
* nethttpd: is a web server component (HTTP server implementation)
* netplex: generic server framework
* rpc: OncRPC implementation
* netclient: clients for HTTP, FTP, and Telnet
* equeue: event queue used for many protocol implementations
* shell: external commands invocation
* netshm: shared memory for IPC purposes
* netsys: bindings for system functions
* smtp and pop: two further client implementations
.
A number of ideas and concepts are used throughout the libraries:
* netchannels are a way to abstract sequential I/O channels
* event queues provided by equeue and unixqueue make asynchronous
protocol interpreters possible
.
This package contains the Ocamlnet reference manual in HTML format and
several examples about how to use the various libraries.
