BSD Socket LTCPEndPoint

[Michel....@gmail.com]

Hi,

I know this is rather an "after the battle" thingy, but I face now a
quite urgent problem related to using the PowerPlant Network Classes.

The program I maintain must be still compatible with OS as old as Mac
OS 8, and I cannot afford to redesign completely the http accesses
interface, so I still count heavily on sub-classes I wrote on top of
the PowerPlant Internet Classes, themselves relying on the PowerPlant
Networking Classes.

I managed to be able to build everything in XCode to produce Universal
binaries as well, but with Leopard, the OpenTransport API's are quite
unstable - I know, it's wrong to still use them, but as I said, I
cannot afford redoing everything from scratch, so I am trying to
smoothly upgrade my design when I succeed being allowed to spend time
on that - .

I read back that some people talked about what I may call a
LBSDSocketTCPEndPoint implementation of the LTCPEndPoint class, an
implementation of it directly above the native BSD socket or CFSocket.
Has someone already done such a port ? (it is quite a long time I did
not go so "deeply" into the programming :) ). If yes, is it available
somewhere ?

Thanks in advance for any clue!

Michel
