Abstract:

Withdrawn Standard. Withdrawn Date: Mar 06, 2000. A C language Application Program Interface (API) to the OSI File Transfer, Access, and Management (FTAM) protocol is defined. The functions of the API implement high-level file transfer and file management operations using the service of an FTAM initiator and service provider that underlie the API. The API uses the services of the OSI Abstract Data Manipulation API (IEEE Std 122-1993) to facilitate passing of data between the API and the user.
Scope:
This standard defines an application program interface (API) to the services of the OSI File Transfer, Access, and Management (FTAM) application-service-element. The API provides access to a set of high-level operations. That is, API functions map on to a sequence of FTAM primitives that implement the required operation. Apart from association management functions, functions that map directly onto FTAM service primitives are not provided. The API provides file transfer and file management operations. File access and filestore management operations are not provided. The API supports the FTAM initiator role. The FTAM responder role is not supported. The API su...
Purpose:
This standard defines a C language Application Program Interface (API) to the 7 services of the OSI File Transfer, Access, and Management (FTAM) application-service-element. It enables application programmers to create portable FTAM file transfer and management applications. By defining a high-level API, this standard makes the services of OSI FTAM available to application programmers that do not need access to the full generality of the FTAM service and may not have the skills to use those services directly. The FTAM API relies upon an implementation of the OSI Abstract Data Manipulation API, as specified in IEEE Std 1224-1993 {14}, to support the passing o...
