This section describes each of the DPI transport-related functions that are available to the DPI subagent programmer. These functions try to hide any platform specific issues for the DPI subagent programmer so that the subagent can be made as portable as possible. If you need detailed control for sending and awaiting DPI packets, you may have to do some of the transport-related code yourself.
The transport-related functions are basically the same for any platform, except for the initial call to setup a connection. OS/2 currently supports the TCP/IP transport type.
