For more information on the Internet library, see the chapter "Network Communication" in the Palm OS Programmer's Companion, vol. II, Communications. NOTE: The information in this chapter applies only to version 3.2 or later of the Palm OS® on Palm VII® devices. These features are implemented only if the Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. WARNING! In future OS versions, Palm, Inc. does not intend to support or provide backward compatibility for the Internet library API documented in this chapter. ## Internet Library Data Structures ## INetCompressionTypeEnum The INetCompressionTypeEnum enum indicates the type of compression used for data exchanged via a socket. One of these enumerated types is set as the value of the inetSockSettingCompressionTypeID socket setting (a read-only setting).
    typedef enum {
    inetCompressionTypeNone = 0,
    inetCompressionTypeBitPacked,
    inetCompressionTypeLZ77
    } INetCompressionTypeEnum;
#### Value Descriptions #####
inetCompressionTypeNone | No compression.
inetCompressionTypeBitPacked | Custom 5-bit compression scheme. This is typically used for data sent from the Palm Web Clipping Proxy server.
inetCompressionTypeLZ77 | Not used; reserved for future use.
## INetConfigNameType The INetConfigNameType structure holds the name of an Internet library network configuration. A configuration is a set of specific values for the Internet library settings. The Internet library defines a set of built-in configuration aliases for common network setups. These aliases point to configurations instead of holding the actual values themselves. You can use an alias anywhere in the API you would use a configuration. System-defined configuration aliases are listed in "Configuration Aliases". This structure is used in the functions INetLibConfigIndexFromName, INetLibConfigRename, and INetLibConfigSaveAs.
    #define inetConfigNameSize 32;

    typedef struct {
    Char name[inetConfigNameSize]; // name of configuration
    } INetConfigNameType, *INetConfigNamePtr;
#### Field Description #####
name | A configuration name (up to 32 characters).
## INetContentTypeEnum The INetContentTypeEnum enum specifies the type of content to be exchanged via a socket. One of these enumerated types is set as the value of the inetSockSettingContentTypeID socket setting (a read-only setting).
    typedef enum {
    inetContentTypeTextPlain = 0,
    inetContentTypeTextHTML,
    inetContentTypeImageGIF,
    inetContentTypeImageJPEG,
    inetContentTypeApplicationCML,
    inetContentTypeImagePalmOS,
    inetContentTypeOther
    } INetContentTypeEnum;
#### Value Descriptions #####

## Internet Library Constants ## Configuration Aliases The constants listed here specify Internet library network configuration alias names. Most of the Internet library API requires a configuration index rather than a name. Use INetLibConfigIndexFromName to obtain the alias's index from the name. For more information, see INetConfigNameType. The following aliases are defined for configuration names: #####
Alias | Name string | Description
--- | --- | ---
inetCfgNameDefault | ".Default" | Initially points to a generic configuration with no proxy. This uses the configuration set by the user in the Network preferences panel.
inetCfgNameDefWireline | ".DefWireline" | Initially points to a generic configuration with no proxy. This uses the configuration set by the user in the Network preferences panel.
inetCfgNameDefWireless | ".DefWireless" | Initially points to a generic configuration with no proxy. This uses the configuration set by the user in the Network preferences panel.
inetCfgNameCTPDefault | ".CTPDefault" | Initially points to either ".CTPWireless" (on Palm VII® units) or ".CTPWireline" (on all other units). On the Palm VII unit, the Web Clipping Application Viewer application uses this configuration.
inetCfgNameCTPWireline | ".CTPWireline" | Initially points to a wireline configuration that uses the Palm Web Clipping Proxy server.
inetCfgNameCTPWireless | ".CTPWireless" | Initially points to a wireless configuration that uses the Palm.NetTM wireless system and the Palm Web Clipping Proxy server.
## URL Info Constants The inetURLInfoFlag... constants convey information about a URL and are returned by the function INetLibURLGetInfo. #####
Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
inetURLInfoFlagIsSecure | 0x0001 | URL was encrypted.
inetURLInfoFlagIsRemote | 0x0002 | URL was retrieved from the net.
inetURLInfoFlagIsInCache | 0x0004 | URL is stored in the cache.
## URL Open Constants The inetOpenURLFlag... constants control how the INetLibURLOpen call operates with respect to caching and encryption. These flags are also used for the inetSockSettingFlags socket setting. #####
Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
inetOpenURLFlagLookInCache | 0x0001 | Read data from the cache, if available.
inetOpenURLFlagKeepInCache | 0x0002 | Store the item in the cache, overwriting any other entries with an equivalent URL.
inetOpenURLFlagForceEncOn | 0x0008 | Use encryption even if scheme does not desire it.
inetOpenURLFlagForceEncOff | 0x0010 | Do not use encryption even if scheme desires it.
## Internet Library Functions ## INetLibCacheGetObject #### Purpose Returns information about an entry in the cache database, including a handle to the record. Either the URL or the unique ID can be used to find the cache entry. #### Prototype Err INetLibCacheGetObject (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle clientParamH, UInt8 *urlTextP, UInt32 uniqueID, INetCacheInfoPtr cacheInfoP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> clientParamH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#####
-> urlTextP | Pointer to URL text string to find. If this parameter is NULL, then uniqueID is used to find the entry.
#####
-> uniqueID | Unique ID of the cache entry to find. This value can be obtained by calling INetLibCacheList. This parameter is ignored if urlTextP is specified.
#####
<- INetCacheInfoPtr | Pointer to a structure where information about the cache entry is returned. See the Comments section for details.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | One or more of the parameters are invalid.
#### Comments The INetCacheInfoPtr type returned from this function is defined as a pointer to an INetCacheInfoType structure, which has the following definition:
    typedef struct {
    MemHandle recordH; // handle to the cache record
    INetContentTypeEnum contentType;
    INetCompressionTypeEnum encodingType;
    UInt32 uncompressedDataSize;
    UInt8 flags; // unused
    UInt8 reserved;
    UInt16 dataOffset; // offset to content
    UInt16 dataLength; // size of content
    UInt16 urlOffset; // offset to URL
    UInt32 viewTime; // time last viewed
    UInt32 createTime; // time entry was created
    UInt16 murlOffset; // offset to master URL
    } INetCacheInfoType, *INetCacheInfoPtr;
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibCacheList #### Purpose Returns an item from the cache list, based on its URL and index in the list. #### Prototype Err INetLibCacheList (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH, UInt8 *cacheIndexURLP, UInt16 *indexP, UInt32 *uidP, INetCacheEntryP cacheP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> inetH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#####
-> cacheIndexURLP | Pointer to a master URL string. Cache entries indexed with this master URL are returned. The Web Clipping Application Viewer sets the master URL of a cache page to the URL of the active PQA, so all pages linked from the PQA have the same master URL.
#####
<-> indexP | Pointer to the index of the entry. Specify an index to find entries at this index or higher in the list. Specify NULL to search from the beginning, the first time you call this function. The index of the entry following the one found is returned on exit.
#####
<- uidP | Pointer to a long value where the unique ID of the found cache entry is returned.
#####
<- cacheP | Pointer to a structure where information about the found cache entry is returned. See the Comments section for details.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrTypeNotCached | Cache entry under requested index not found
inetErrParamsInvalid | The cacheIndexURLP parameter is NULL
inetErrCacheInvalid | The cache database doesn't exist
#### Comments This function first sorts the list of cache entries by URL. Then it returns in uidP the unique ID of the first cache entry with an index equal to or greater than indexP. The indexP value is updated to point to the next entry upon return. To generate a complete list of cache entries having the same master URL (as for a history list), call this function repeatedly, always specifying the updated index, until it returns the error inetErrTypeNotCached. Note that a URL can exist multiple times in the Web Clipping Application Viewer cache database, thus the need for the uidP value. The INetCacheEntryP type returned from this function is defined as a pointer to an INetCacheEntryType structure, which has the following definition:
    typedef struct {
    UInt8 *urlP; // ptr to URL string
    UInt16 urlLen; // length of URL string
    UInt8 *titleP; // ptr to title string
    UInt16 titleLen; // length of title string
    UInt32 lastViewed; // time last viewed
                       // seconds since 1/1/1904
    UInt32 firstViewed; // time first viewed
                       // seconds since 1/1/1904
    } INetCacheEntryType, *INetCacheEntryP;
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibCheckAntennaState #### Purpose Checks the antenna state and displays a dialog asking the user to raise it if it is down. #### Prototype Err INetLibCheckAntennaState(UInt16 refNum) #### Parameters #####
-> refNum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#### Result #####
0 | The user raised the antenna.
netErrUserCancel | The user closed the dialog by tapping Cancel.
This call can also return data manager errors if it fails internally. #### Comments Applications don't need to check the antenna state by using this call. If an application opens the Internet library, the Internet library checks the antenna state when needed and displays the dialog to prompt the user to raise the antenna. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibClose #### Purpose Closes up and frees an inet handle. Closes or decrements the open count of the net library. #### Prototype Err INetLibClose (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> inetH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments This call must be made by an application when it's done with the Internet library. It closes any Internet sockets open by the application, disposes the memory referenced by the given inet handle, and calls NetLibClose, if necessary, to close the net Library or decrement its open count. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibOpen ## INetLibConfigAliasGet #### Purpose Determines to which configuration a built-in alias points. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigAliasGet (UInt16 refNum, UInt16 aliasIndex, UInt16 *indexP, Boolean *isAnotherAliasP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> aliasIndex | Index of alias configuration to query. This is the index of the configuration in the internal array of configurations stored by the system. This is the same as the index of the item in the array returned by INetLibConfigList, or the index returned by INetLibConfigIndexFromName.
#####
<- indexP | Pointer where the index of the configuration pointed to by aliasIndex is returned. 0 is returned if aliasIndex does not point to another configuration.
#####
<- isAnotherAliasP | If *indexP is the index of another alias configuration, this Boolean is set to true.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | aliasIndex is not valid
inetErrConfigNotAlias | aliasIndex is not an alias configuration
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibConfigAliasSet ## INetLibConfigAliasSet #### Purpose Points any of the built-in aliases (".DefWireline", ".DefWireless", etc.) to a given defined configuration. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigAliasSet (UInt16 refNum, UInt16 configIndex, UInt16 aliasToIndex) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> configIndex | Index of configuration to set. This is the index of the configuration in the internal array of configurations stored by the system. This is the same as the index of the item in the array returned by INetLibConfigList, or the index returned by INetLibConfigIndexFromName.
#####
-> aliasToIndex | Index of configuration that the alias identified by configIndex is to point to. Specify 0 to remove an existing alias assignment.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrConfigNotAlias | configIndex is not an alias configuration
inetErrParamsInvalid | configIndex or aliasToIndex is not valid
inetErrConfigCantPointToAlias | Alias doesn't point to a real entry
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibConfigAliasGet ## INetLibConfigDelete #### Purpose Deletes a configuration. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigDelete (UInt16 refNum, UInt16 index) #### Parameters #####
-> refnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> index | Index of configuration to delete. This is the index of the configuration in the internal array of configurations stored by the system. This is the same as the index of the item in the array returned by INetLibConfigList, or the index returned by INetLibConfigIndexFromName.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | Index not valid
inetErrConfigCantDelete | Attempted to delete an alias configuration
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibConfigIndexFromName, INetLibConfigList ## INetLibConfigIndexFromName #### Purpose Returns the index of a configuration given it's name. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigIndexFromName (UInt16 refNum, INetConfigNamePtr nameP, UInt16 *indexP) #### Parameters #####
-> refnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> nameP | Pointer to an INetConfigNameType structure that names the configuration whose index you want to get.
#####
<- indexP | Pointer where the index of the configuration identified in nameP is returned.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrConfigNotFound | Could not find requested configuration name
#### Comments If you name an alias, this routine returns the index of the alias entry, not the configuration the alias points to. This way the alias can be pointed to a different configuration. Applications should store the index of the configuration they're using, rather than the name, so that they won't be confused if the user edits the name of the configuration from the Preferences panel. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibConfigList ## INetLibConfigList #### Purpose Returns an array containing a list of the available Internet library network configurations. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigList (UInt16 refNum, INetConfigNameType nameArray[], UInt16 *arrayEntriesP) #### Parameters #####
-> refnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> nameArray | Pointer to an array of INetConfigNameType structs that is to be filled in by this routine.
#####
<-> arrayEntriesP | On entry, a pointer to the number of entries available in nameArray; on exit, a pointer to the total number of entries in the system (which could exceed the size of the array you pass in).
#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments This routine can be used to obtain a list of available configurations for selection by the user. Note that the built-in alias configurations, which start with a period, should not be displayed to the user as selectable choices. They are designed for internal use by applications that need a predetermined type of service (like ".CTPWireless" for PQA applications.) Also, any configurations that start with an underscore, like "_CTPRAM", should not be displayed. These typically are configurations created by the Internet library for internal use and cannot be edited using the Network preferences panel. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibConfigMakeActive ## INetLibConfigMakeActive #### Purpose Makes the given configuration active without having to close and reopen the Internet library by using INetLibOpen. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigMakeActive (UInt16 refNum, MemHandle inetH, UInt16 configIndex) #### Parameters #####

#####
-> newNameP | Pointer to an INetConfigNameType structure holding the new name of the configuration. The name cannot start with a period or an underscore.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrConfigBadName | Trying to save as an alias (beginning with ".") or as a built-in configuration (beginning with "_").
inetErrParamsInvalid | Invalid index
inetErrConfigCantDelete | Configuration to be renamed is either an alias or a built-in configuration
#### Comments After renaming, the configuration index stays the same so that applications that are set up to use that configuration will still work correctly. Note that built-in configuration aliases (ones that start with a period) cannot be renamed. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibConfigSaveAs #### Purpose Saves the current network configuration settings under the given name. #### Prototype Err INetLibConfigSaveAs (UInt16 refNum, MemHandle inetH, INetConfigNamePtr nameP) #### Parameters #####

#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments This call is designed to replace EvtGetEvent in applications which use the Internet library. For convenience, if inetH is NULL, INetLibGetEvent is equivalent to EvtGetEvent. INetLibGetEvent returns two additional events besides those returned by EvtGetEvent: inetSockReadyEvent and inetSockStatusChangeEvent. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockStatus, INetLibURLOpen, INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockRead ## INetLibOpen #### Purpose Creates a new application inet handle structure. Opens or increments the open count of the net library. #### Prototype Err INetLibOpen (UInt16 libRefnum, UInt16 config, UInt32 flags, DmOpenRef cacheRef, UInt32 cacheSize, MemHandle *inetHP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library. Pass the value "INet.lib" to SysLibFind to return this refnum.

#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrTooManyClients | Too many clients opened already
inetErrIncompatibleInterface | The net library is already open with an incompatible interface
#### Comments This call must be made by an application before it can use any other Internet library calls. This call opens the Internet library and returns a pointer to an inet handle, which is then passed to subsequent calls to the Internet library. Every application that opens the Internet library gets its own unique inet handle. When an application is done using the Internet library, it must call INetLibClose, which closes both the Internet library and the net library, if necessary. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibClose, INetLibConfigIndexFromName ## INetLibSettingGet #### Purpose Retrieves current settings for an inet handle. #### Prototype Err INetLibSettingGet (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH, UInt16 setting, void *bufP, UInt16 *bufLenP) #### Parameters #####

#####
<-> bufLenP | Size of bufP on entry. Size of setting value on exit.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | Invalid setting requested
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid | *bufLenP is the incorrect size for the requested setting
#### Comments This call can be used to retrieve the current settings of an inet handle. Some settings have default values that are stored in the system preferences database; see INetSettingEnum for details. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibOpen, INetLibSettingSet, INetSettingEnum ## INetLibSettingSet #### Purpose Changes a setting for an inet handle. #### Prototype Err INetLibSettingSet (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH, UInt16 setting, void *bufP, UInt16 bufLen) #### Parameters #####

#####
-> bufLen | Size of the value in bufP.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | Invalid setting specified
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid | bufLen is the incorrect size for the specified setting
#### Comments Any changes made to the settings last only as long as the inetH is around (until INetLibClose is called) and do not affect other applications that might be using the Internet library. An important note is that settings made through this call essentially change the default values for any sockets subsequently created through INetLibURLOpen or INetLibSockOpen. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSettingGet, INetSettingEnum ## INetLibSockClose #### Purpose Closes an inet socket handle. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockClose (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle socketH) #### Parameters #####

-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> sockH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket to connect.
#####
-> hostnameP | Pointer to host name string; can be dotted decimal text string.
#####
-> port | Port number, or 0 for default port.
#####
-> timeou | Timeout in ticks. Specify evtWaitForever to wait forever.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments This call associates a remote host name and port number with a socket and, depending on the socket protocol, initiates a connection with that remote host. This call may return immediately before actually finishing the connect. The application can simply go ahead and submit additional calls such as INetLibSockRead, or it may wait for the connect to complete by either polling INetLibSockStatus until the socket status is inetStatusConnected (not recommended), or by waiting for an inetSockStatusChangeEvent event from INetLibGetEvent and checking the status then (preferred). #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockStatus, INetLibGetEvent ## INetLibSockHTTPAttrGet #### Purpose Queries HTTP request header formed by the local host, or the response header information returned by a remote host. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockHTTPAttrGet (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle sockH, UInt16 attr, UInt16 attrIndex, void *bufP, UInt32 *bufLenP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.

#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrSettingNotImplemented | Invalid setting specified
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid | bufLen is the incorrect size for the specified setting
#### Comments This call queries either the request header formed by INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate and INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet, or the response header returned by the remote host. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate ## INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet #### Purpose Adds additional HTTP request headers to an HTTP request in a socket. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle sockH, UInt16 attr, UInt16 attrIndex, UInt8 *bufP, UInt16 bufLen, UInt16 flags) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> sockH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket.

#####
-> flags | Flags that control the addition of new headers. Currently unused.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrSettingNotImplemented | Invalid setting specified
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid | bufLen is the incorrect size for the specified setting
#### Comments This call modifies attributes of an HTTP request formed by INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate. Generally, attributes are set only before calling INetLibSockHTTPReqSend. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate, INetLibSockHTTPReqSend ## INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate #### Purpose Forms an HTTP request for the socket. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle sockH, UInt8 *verbP, UInt8 *resNameP, UInt8 *refererP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> sockH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket.
#####
-> verbP | Reserved for future use.
#####
-> resNameP | Pointer to a string holding the name of the resource to get or put.
#####
-> refererP | Pointer to a string holding the name of the referring URL, or NULL if none.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | Not an HTTP socket
#### Comments This call forms an HTTP request for the socket. The request is not actually sent to the remote host until INetLibSockHTTPReqSend is called. The HTTP verb used in the request is determined by the value of the writeP parameter passed to INetLibSockHTTPReqSend: if this parameter is NULL, "GET" is used. Otherwise, "POST" is used. After a call to INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate but before a call to INetLibSockHTTPReqSend, the application can add additional HTTP request headers using INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet, INetLibSockHTTPReqSend ## INetLibSockHTTPReqSend #### Purpose Sends an HTTP request to the remote host or looks for data in the cache. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockHTTPReqSend (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle sockH, void *writeP, UInt32 writeLen, Int32 timeout) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> sockH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket.
#####
-> writeP | Pointer to additional data to send after the request headers. Usually used for POST and PUT operations.
#####
-> writeLen | Number of bytes in writeP.
#####
-> timeout | Timeout in ticks.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrRequestTooLong | Request too big
inetErrEncryptionNotAvail | Encryption requested but not available
#### Comments This call sends an HTTP request created by INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate and INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet to the remote host. If this is an POST or PUT operation, the data to write can be specified in writeP. INetLibSockHTTPReqSend doesn't always do network I/O. If the proper socket flag is set, it checks first to see if the requested data is already in the cache. If it is, then a pointer to the cached data is stored in the socket and the socket status is updated to show that data is ready to be read. This will trigger an inetSockReadyEvent event. The socket flag (inetOpenURLFlagLookInCache) that causes the cache to be checked first can be set via the flags parameter to INetLibURLOpen or by calling INetLibSockSettingSet with the appropriate setting (inetSockSettingFlags). After sending the request, the application can wait for the response to arrive by either polling INetLibSockStatus until the inputReady boolean is set (not recommended), or by waiting for an inetSockReadyEvent event from INetLibGetEvent (preferred). #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate, INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet, INetLibGetEvent ## INetLibSockOpen #### Purpose Creates and returns a new inet socket handle. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockOpen (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH, UInt16 scheme, MemHandle *sockHP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> inetH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#####
-> scheme | The protocol scheme to use. Specify one of the INetSchemeEnum types.
#####
<- sockHP | Pointer to the address where the socket handle is returned.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrTooManySockets | Too many sockets open
inetErrSchemeNotSupported | Requested URL scheme not supported
#### Comments This call creates a new socket for the given scheme. No network I/O is performed. This is a relatively low level call that can be used in place of INetLibURLOpen when finer control over the socket settings is required. Using INetLibURLOpen, an HTTP request can be handled with the simple sequence: INetLibURLOpen, INetLibSockRead, and INetLibSockClose. When using INetLibSockOpen, the same HTTP request would be handled by replacing the INetLibURLOpen call with the sequence: INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockSettingSet (optional), INetLibSockConnect, INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate, INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet (optional), and INetLibSockHTTPReqSend. The use of INetLibSockOpen allows an application finer control over the socket settings (by calling INetLibSockSettingSet) and the HTTP request headers (by calling INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet). #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibOpen, INetLibURLOpen, INetLibSockRead, INetLibSockClose, INetLibSockSettingSet, INetLibSockHTTPAttrSet ## INetLibSockRead #### Purpose Reads data from a socket. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockRead (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle sockH, void *bufP, UInt32 reqBytes, UInt32 *actBytesP, Int32 timeout) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> sockH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#####
-> bufP | Pointer to buffer where the data is placed.
#####
-> reqBytes | Requested number of bytes.
#####
<- actBytesP | Pointer to the actual number of bytes read.
#####
-> timeout | Timeout in ticks. Specify evtWaitForever to wait forever.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments This call attempts to read reqBytes bytes from the given socket. It returns the actual number of bytes read in *actBytesP. If the connection with the remote host has been closed, *actBytesP contains 0 on exit. Note that it is normal for the actual bytes read to be less than the requested number of bytes. The application should be prepared to call this routine repeatedly until the desired number of bytes have been read or until *actBytesP contains 0, indicating the connection has been closed, or until an error is returned. This call returns as much data as possible without blocking, however, if no data is available to be read, it does block until at least one byte is available. Normally, applications will wait for an inetSockReadyEvent from INetLibGetEvent before calling INetLibSockRead. Alternatively, the application could call INetLibSockStatus to determine if the socket has any data ready (not recommended), or could simply rely on INetLibSockRead to block until at least one byte is available to read. If no data is available before the timeout expires, inetErrReadTimeout error is returned. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibURLOpen, INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockStatus, INetLibSockClose, INetLibGetEvent ## INetLibSockSettingGet #### Purpose Retrieves a socket setting. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockSettingGet (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle socketH, UInt16 setting, void *bufP, UInt16 *bufLenP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> socketH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket to get a setting from.
#####
-> setting | The setting to get. Specify one of the INetSockSettingEnum values.
#####
<- bufP | Pointer to buffer where the setting value is to be placed.
#####
<-> bufLenP | Size of bufP on entry; size of returned value on exit.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | Invalid setting requested
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid | *bufLenP is the incorrect size for the requested setting
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockSettingSet ## INetLibSockSettingSet #### Purpose Changes a setting of a socket. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockSettingSet (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle socketH, UInt16 setting, void *bufP, UInt16 bufLen) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> socketH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket to set.
#####
-> setting | The setting to set. Specify one of the INetSockSettingEnum values.
#####
-> bufP | Pointer to buffer containing the new setting value.
#####
-> bufLen | Size of new setting in bufP.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrSettingNotImplemented | Invalid setting specified
inetErrSettingSizeInvalid | bufLen is the incorrect size for the setting
#### Comments This call can be use to override a general setting for a particular socket. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockSettingGet ## INetLibSockStatus #### Purpose Retrieves the current status of a socket. #### Prototype Err INetLibSockStatus (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle socketH, UInt16 *statusP, Err *sockErrP, Boolean *inputReadyP, Boolean *outputReadyP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> socketH | Handle (allocated by INetLibSockOpen or INetLibURLOpen) of the socket to get status on.
#####
<- statusP | Pointer to the address where the status is returned. The status will be one of the INetStatusEnum values.
#####
<- sockErrP | Currently unused.
#####
<- inputReadyP | Pointer to a Boolean; true is returned if the socket has data available to read.
#####
<- outputReadyP | Pointer to a Boolean; true is returned if the socket can accept data for writing.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments Most applications that use INetLibGetEvent will rarely need to use this call since socket status changes are returned in the event structure. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibURLOpen, INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockRead, INetLibGetEvent ## INetLibURLCrack #### Purpose Cracks a URL text string into its components. #### Prototype Err INetLibURLCrack (UInt16 libRefnum, UInt8 *urlTextP, INetURLType *urlP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> urlTextP | Pointer to URL text string.
#####
<-> urlP | Pointer to address where the URL information block is to be returned.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | urlTextP is NULL or empty, or urlP is NULL
inetErrURLVersionInvalid | urlP is wrong version
#### Comments If a pointer member of urlP is set to NULL on entry, then on exit it will point to the start of that component within the original urlTextP string; the associated member length is set to the length of that URL component. If a pointer member of urlP is not NULL on entry, then it must point to a buffer of sufficient size to hold the member data, and on exit the component string will be copied into this buffer and the associated member length will be updated with the actual size. Note that the returned strings are not null-terminated, so the length values are important. It's easiest to initialize the InetURLType block to zeros and let this function fill in all the information about the URL components. The InetURLType block returned from this function has the following structure:
    typedef struct {
    UInt16 version; // 0, for future compatibility
    UInt8 *schemeP; // ptr to scheme portion
    UInt16 schemeLen; // size of scheme portion
    UInt16 schemeEnum; // INetSchemeEnum; the scheme
    UInt8 *usernameP; // ptr to username portion
    UInt16 usernameLen; // size of username
    UInt8 *passwordP; // ptr to password portion
    UInt16 passwordLen; // size of password
    UInt8 *hostnameP; // ptr to host name portion
    UInt16 hostnameLen; // size of host name
    UInt16 port; // port number
    UInt8 *pathP; // ptr to path portion
    UInt16 pathLen; // size of path
    UInt8 *paramP; // ptr to param (;param)
    UInt16 paramLen; // size of param
    UInt8 *queryP; // ptr to query (?query)
    UInt16 queryLen; // size of query
    UInt8 *fragP; // ptr to fragment (#frag)
    UInt16 fragLen; // size of fragment
    } INetURLType
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibURLGetInfo #### Purpose Returns information about a URL. #### Prototype Err INetLibURLGetInfo (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH, UInt8 *urlTextP, INetURLInfoType *urlInfoP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> inetH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#####
-> urlTextP | Pointer to URL text string.
#####
<-> urlInfoP | Pointer to address where the URL information structure is to be returned.
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | urlInfoP is NULL or incorrect version
#### Comments The InetURLInfo block returned from this function has the following structure:
    typedef struct {
    UInt16 version; // 0, for future compatibility
    UInt16 flags; // flags word
    UInt32 undefined; // reserved for future use
    } INetURLInfo
The flags word can consist of some combination of these values:
    inetURLInfoFlagIsSecure // URL was encrypted
    inetURLInfoFlagIsRemote // URL was retrieved
    from the net
    inetURLInfoFlagIsInCache // URL is stored in
    the cache
#### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibURLOpen #### Purpose Accesses a URL on the Internet or in the cache. #### Prototype Err INetLibURLOpen (UInt16 libRefnum, MemHandle inetH, UInt8 *urlP, UInt8 *cacheIndexURLP, MemHandle *sockHP, Int32 timeout, UInt16 flags) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> inetH | Inet handle allocated by INetLibOpen.
#####
-> urlP | Pointer to string containing the URL to access.
#####
-> cacheIndexURLP | Pointer to URL string under which the requested URL should be indexed in the cache. Specify NULL if you don't need to index the cache. If you are using the Web Clipping Application Viewer cache (not recommended), you must follow the Viewer convention, which is to pass the URL of the active PQA.
#####
<- sockHP | Pointer to address where the socket handle is returned.
#####
-> timeout | Timeout in ticks. Specify evtWaitForever to wait forever.
#####
-> flags | Flags indicating caching and encryption options desired. Specify zero, one, or more of the URL open flags (see URL Open Constants).
#### Result #####
0 | No error
inetErrParamsInvalid | urlP is NULL
#### Comments This call sets up a connection to a resource on the Internet addressed by urlP and returns a socket handle. Note that if you specify that the cache should be searched first, and if the data is found in the cache, no network I/O occurs. The application can then read that socket resource through the INetLibSockRead call. This call is a convenience routine that internally makes the following calls for http URLs: INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockConnect, INetLibSockHTTPReqCreate, and INetLibSockHTTPReqSend. This routine returns immediately before performing any required network I/O. It is then up to the caller to either block on INetLibSockRead, or to use INetLibGetEvent to model asynchronous operation. Using INetLibGetEvent is the preferred way of performing network I/O since it maximizes battery life and user-interface responsiveness. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. #### See Also INetLibSockOpen, INetLibSockConnect, INetLibSockRead, INetLibSockClose ## INetLibURLsAdd #### Purpose Concatenates two URLs, resulting in one absolute URL. #### Prototype Err INetLibURLsAdd (UInt16 libRefnum, Char *baseURLStr, Char *embeddedURLStr, Char *resultURLStr, UInt16 *resultLenP) #### Parameters #####
-> libRefnum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> baseURLStr | Pointer to base URL string.
#####
-> embeddedURLStr | Pointer to URL text string to append.
#####
<-> resultURLStr | Pointer to resulting URL string.
#####
<-> resultLenP | Pointer to size of resultURLStr buffer on entry. On exit, pointer to resulting URL length (including null terminator).
#### Result #####
0 | No error
#### Comments Used to append a URL fragment to a base URL, resulting in an absolute URL string that can be passed to INetLibURLOpen or other functions. This routine ensures that the resulting string conforms to the URL format. #### Compatibility Implemented only if Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. ## INetLibWiCmd #### Purpose Invokes a command that operates on the wireless indicator. #### Prototype Boolean INetLibWiCmd (UInt16 refNum, UInt16 cmd, int enableOrX, int y) #### Parameters #####
-> refNum | Refnum of the Internet library.
#####
-> cmd | The command to invoke. Specify one of the WiCmdEnum values (see Comments section).
#####
-> enableOrX | If cmd is wiCmdSetEnabled, specify 1 to enable the wireless indicator or 0 to disable it. If cmd is wiCmdSetLocation, this specifies the x coordinate of the location.
#####
-> y | The y coordinate of the location. Used only if cmd is wiCmdSetLocation.
#### Result If cmd is wiCmdEnabled, this function returns true if the wireless indicator is enabled or false if it is not. For other command types, the return value is undefined. #### Comments The wireless indicator is a 19x13 pixel image on the screen to indicate the current wireless signal strength. This shows as 0 - 5 bars. If the application is in a non-modal window with a title bar, the preferred location for the indicator is at (140,1). It automatically updates itself as long as you are calling INetLibGetEvent. It should be shown on screen while a wireless transaction is in progress. It may also be shown when the user has nothing useful to do next but initiate a wireless transaction, and there isn't much other useful information being displayed. The WiCmdEnum enum specifies a command that operates on the wireless indicator in the user interface. The definition of this type is found in WirelessIndicator.h and is as follows:
    typedef enum {
    wiCmdInit =0,
    wiCmdClear,
    wiCmdSetEnabled,
    wiCmdDraw,
    wiCmdEnabled,
    wiCmdSetLocation,
    wiCmdErase
    } WiCmdEnum;
#### Value Descriptions #####
wiCmdInit | Initializes the wireless indicator. You must invoke this command first, before using any of the others.
wiCmdClear | Applications shouldn't use this command. To erase the indicator, disable it by using wiCmdSetEnabled and passing 0 for enableOrX.
wiCmdSetEnabled | Enables or disables the wireless indicator.
wiCmdDraw | Redraws the wireless indicator using the latest data. Applications don't need to use this command since the indicator is redrawn automatically by INetLibGetEvent.
wiCmdEnabled | Returns a Boolean indicating if the wireless indicator is enabled.
wiCmdSetLocation | Sets the location for the wireless indicator on the screen.
wiCmdErase | Erases the wireless indicator. Applications shouldn't use this command. To erase the indicator, disable it by using wiCmdSetEnabled and passing 0 for enableOrX.
