+Platform Implementations + +
 
+This document describes the implementation issues with different platforms +that the SILC Toolkit support. Some of the supported platforms does not +support all the features delivered with the Toolkit or they may behave +differently from other platforms. + +
 
+
  • Unix & Linux Implementation
    +
  • Windows Implementation
    +
  • Mac OS X Implementation +
  • Symbian OS Implementation + +
     
     
    +Supported Platforms + +
     
    +SILC Toolkit supports by default all Unix and Linux platforms, Windows +platforms from Windows 2000 and newer, Mac OS X and Symbian OS. + +
     
     
    +Unix Implementation + +
     
    +All features and components delivered with the SILC Toolkit work on all +Unix and Linux platforms. There are no special Unix platform related +implementation issues with current version of SILC Toolkit. + + +
     
     
    +Windows Implementation + +
     
    +By default all features and components delivered with SILC Toolkit are +supported on Windows. However, there are some certain issues with the +Windows version of the SILC Toolkit. + +
     
    +
  • Some of the network routines do not support IPv6. + + +
     
     
    +Mac OS X Implementation + +
     
    +All features and components delivered with the SILC Toolkit work on Mac +OS X platform. There are no special Mac OS X platform related +implementation issues with current version of SILC Toolkit. + + +
     
     
    +Symbian OS Implementation + +
     
    +Symbian OS support in SILC Toolkit is still experimental. By default all +features and components delivered with SILC Toolkit are supported and +should work on Symbian. However, there are some issues with the Symbian +version of the SILC Toolkit of what Symbian developers need to be aware. + +
     
    +
  • The function silc_schedule on Symbian will allocate new Active +Scheduler Waiter and will block the calling thread. The caller should +allocate Active Scheduler before calling silc_schedule. + +
  • When adding timeout tasks to SILC Scheduler the SILC Scheduler is woken +up after the timeout task has been added. This allows adding of the +timeout tasks from Symbian active objects outside the SILC Scheduler loop. +On other platforms this wakeup operation is not performed. + +
  • Adding fd task to SILC Scheduler will not schedule the fd for any +operation. Instead, programmer should use SILC Socket Stream API and SILC +Fd Stream API on Symbian when dealing with file descriptors and sockets. +These APIs provide asynchronous notification when data is available and can +be written. + +
  • The function silc_thread_create on Symbian will install Active +Scheduler and allocate Cleanup Stack for the new thread. The created +thread always shares heap with the parent thread. +
