Detailed Description

TCP device wrapper that exposes framed packets through the PIIODevice API.

The PIPackedTCP class provides a TCP client/server device with automatic data packing/unpacking using PIStreamPacker. It supports both client and server roles with reliable byte-stream transmission over TCP connections.

TCP packed channel.

Synopsis

PIEthernet designed to work with IPv4 network via two protocols: UDP and TCP. This class allow you send and receive packets to/from another computer through network. Also it supports broadcast and multicast extensions.
