Welcome to project nettobac, a FreeBASIC (FB) extension to handle network connections. It is implemented in OOP (object orientated programming) as classes, designed to get included in users source code at module level. It provides features to handle network transfer similar to FB file access like

• OPEN and CLOSE network connections
• PUT (= send) or GET (= receive) data thereover

The package has no further dependencies (it's based on libc), it's hosted at GitHub and it contains

• the source code in folder src/bas
  • the nettobac classes
  • utility functions for http protocol
  • two examples for client and server usage
• the configuration files to build the documentation in folder doxy
• the documentation context in .md files in folder src/doc
• CMake scripts to build several targets (ie. all, doc, doc_htm, doc_pdf)

Find the online documentation at http://users.freebasic-portal.de/tjf/Projekte/nettobac/doc/html/

The project has been inspired by Allegro Simplificator and SNC.

This documentation is generated by the Doxygen generator from FB source code by fb-doc filtering.
