| The EziTCP
toolkit is a collection of useful software components (ActiveX controls and DLLs) that
provide hight level Windows Sockets (Winsock) compliant TCP/IP functionality to
applications. The EziTCP toolkit greatly simplifies the development of Client/Server
applications that communicate over TCP/IP. The toolkit consists of several modules. These
modules provide support for developing both Client and Server side applications. These software components can be used in any application built by
you thus saving you considerable effort in development and testing.
A limited version of the EziTCP Toolkit is available for
the Windows 16-bit (Windows 3.1 and Windows 3.11) platform.
The key features of the EziTCP toolkit are listed below. If
you have any specific queries, please send them to Info@Active-COM.com.
The EziTCP toolkit currently consists of the following
modules:
- ACTCP:
Provides TCP/IP Client and Server messaging.
- ACFTP:
Provides FTP file transfer functionality.
These modules collectively provide the following
functionality.
- A high level, easy-to-use API that provides access to
Winsock functionality.
- Same consistant API supported on 16-bit and 32-bit
platforms.
- Can be used to build both client and server side
applications.
- Can be used to implement other TCP/IP application level
protocols such as SMTP,FTP, POP3, Telnet etc.
- Full file transfer functionality using FTP.
- Can be used to build powerful multi-threaded server
applications (32-bit only).
- Can access all the Winsock functionality.
- Sample programs demonstrate every API provided.
- Raw TCP/IP APIs can be used to send and receive messages
(data) between client and server applications.
The ACTCP Module The ACTCP
module provides a collection of high-level functions useful for developing TCP/IP Client
and Server applications that can communicate by exchanging messages. These high level
functions greatly simplify the TCP/IP application development process. Only a few lines of
Visual Basic or Visual C++ code is required to implement TCP/IP Client or Server
application. The ACTCP Sample Programs demonstrate the use of the ACTCP module in Visual
Basic.
The RAW TCP/IP functionality provided by the ACTCP module
can be used for developing other TCP/IP application protocols such as SMTP or FTP.
The ACTCPX (32-bit) ActiveX control also provdes support
for bulding multi-threaded server applications in Visual Basic.
The ACTCP module is available in the following formats:
- ACTCP.DLL - 16-bit DLL for Windows 3.x environment
- ACTCP32.DLL - 32-bit DLL for Windows NT/95 (Win32)
- ACTCPX.DLL - 32-bit ActiveX control for Windows NT/95
(Win32)
The ACFTP Module
The ACFTP module provides a collection of methods that can be
used to implement FTP client side functionality in applications. These methods
support high level operations in addition to what is provided by the FTP protocol itself.
The ACFTP module is available as an ActiveX
control. It is contained in the same file as the ACTCP module (actcpx.dll).
The standard functionality included in the ACFTP module
include:
- File upload and download
- Directory read with file types
The extended functionality include in the ACTFTP control
include:
- Recursive directory upload and download (using wildcards)
- File and directory existance checking

The Active-COM Development/Support
team has put together a collection of sample programs
that demonstrate how the toolkit can be used for you to download and use.
