Open C: IRC Example

description:

Examine this code example to learn how to use an open source IRC library and Open C to create a functional IRC client application. The example contains a simple open source C library CIRC for communicating with IRC servers that is ported to Symbian OS using Open C and called from a GUI that is implemented using Symbian C++. The use case of the example is to communicate with other IRC users on the chosen IRC server. This example also supports sending "raw" IRC commands and is therefore a fully functional client application. A document about porting experiences and example architecture is also included in the package. Important libraries/structs/functions: libc, sockaddr_in, socket, gethostbyname, connect, nonblocking.
