Ecore Connection Library Functions

---

Utility functions that set up and shut down the Ecore Connection library.

There's also ecore_con_lookup() that can be used to make simple asynchronous DNS lookups.

A simple example of how to use these functions:

• Ecore_Con - DNS lookup

Functions
int	ecore_con_init (void)
	Initializes the Ecore_Con library.
int	ecore_con_shutdown (void)
	Shuts down the Ecore_Con library.
Typedefs
typedef void(*	Ecore_Con_Dns_Cb )(const char *canonname, const char *ip, struct sockaddr *addr, int addrlen, void *data)

Typedef Documentation

Ecore_Con_Dns_Cb

A callback type for use with ecore_con_lookup.

---

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum _Ecore_Con_Type

Types for an ecore_con client/server object. A correct way to set this type is with an ECORE_CON_$TYPE, optionally OR'ed with an ECORE_CON_$USE if encryption is desired, and LOAD_CERT if the previously loaded certificate should be used.

 ECORE_CON_REMOTE_TCP | ECORE_CON_USE_TLS | ECORE_CON_LOAD_CERT

Enumerator:

ECORE_CON_LOCAL_USER	Socket in ~/.ecore
ECORE_CON_LOCAL_SYSTEM	Socket in /tmp
ECORE_CON_LOCAL_ABSTRACT	Abstract socket
ECORE_CON_REMOTE_TCP	Remote server using TCP
ECORE_CON_REMOTE_MCAST	Remote multicast server
ECORE_CON_REMOTE_UDP	Remote server using UDP
ECORE_CON_REMOTE_BROADCAST	Remote broadcast using UDP
ECORE_CON_REMOTE_NODELAY	Remote connection sending packets immediately
ECORE_CON_REMOTE_CORK	Remote connection sending data in large chunks Note: Only available on Linux. Since (EFL) : 1.2
ECORE_CON_USE_SSL2	Use SSL2: UNSUPPORTED.
ECORE_CON_USE_SSL3	Use SSL3: UNSUPPORTED.
ECORE_CON_USE_TLS	Use TLS
ECORE_CON_USE_MIXED	Use both TLS and SSL3
ECORE_CON_LOAD_CERT	Attempt to use the loaded certificate
ECORE_CON_NO_PROXY	Disable all types of proxy on the server Note: Only functional for clients. Since (EFL) : 1.2

Function Documentation

int ecore_con_init

(

void

)

Initializes the Ecore_Con library.

Returns:

Number of times the library has been initialised without being shut down.

Note:

This function already calls ecore_init() internally, so you don't need to call it explicitly.

Since :

3.0

Examples:

ecore_con_client_simple_example.c, ecore_con_lookup_example.c, ecore_con_server_simple_example.c, ecore_con_url_cookies_example.c, ecore_con_url_download_example.c, and ecore_con_url_headers_example.c.

int ecore_con_shutdown

(

void

)

Shuts down the Ecore_Con library.

Returns:

Number of times the library has been initialised without being shut down.

Note:

This function already calls ecore_shutdown() internally, so you don't need to call it explicitly unless you called ecore_init() explicitly too.

Since :

3.0

Examples:

ecore_con_client_simple_example.c, ecore_con_lookup_example.c, ecore_con_server_simple_example.c, ecore_con_url_cookies_example.c, ecore_con_url_download_example.c, and ecore_con_url_headers_example.c.
