Accessing IrTranP

In order to use IrTranP functionality, code must #include the tranp.h header file, and link with the irtranp.lib library. This itself is simply the stub to irtranp.dll: a run time DLL which must be loaded by the client code at run time.

The irtranp.dll runs in the user’s thread and makes extensive use of active object technology. Due to this, there are two important considerations to make when using the DLL:

• Install a CActiveScheduler before making any calls to IrTranP functions

• Do not make any calls to User::WaitForRequest() while an IrTranP request is outstanding.

This ensures that the CActive derived objects within irtranp.dll are scheduled as required.
