At times, you may be interested in using the Galaxy Communicator C library in executables besides the Hub and servers. For instance, you may be interested in writing code which pretends to be a Hub and contacts a server directly, or you may be interested in parsing and manipulating Communicator frames.
GalIO_CommStruct *GalIO_ClientConnect(const
char *name, const char *host, unsigned short port, int
silent, Gal_Frame welcome_frame, Gal_Frame *reply_frame)
Contact the server located at host and port and use welcome_frame
as the contents of the reinitialize message. The
name and silent arguments are for debugging purposes. The server
that is contacted will behave exactly as if a Hub had contacted it.
void Gal_InitializeStatics(void
)
This function initializes the verbosity printing and all the mutexes required
for threaded interaction. If you write an application which doesn't create
a GalIO_ServerStruct object, you must call this function.
