Remarks
The Telnet protocol is used to establish a connection with a
server which provides a virtual terminal session for a user. Its
functionality is similar to how character based consoles and serial
terminals work, enabling a user to login to the server, execute
commands and interact with applications running on the remote host.
The class provides an interface for establishing the connection,
negotiating certain options (such as whether characters will be
echoed back to the client) and handling the standard I/O methods
needed by the program. It also provides methods that enable a
program to easily scan the data stream for specific sequences of
characters, making it very simple to write light-weight client
interfaces to applications running on the server. The CTelnetClient
class can be combined with the CTerminalEmulator class to provide
complete terminal emulation services for a standard ANSI or
DEC-VT220 terminal.
This class supports secure connections using the standard SSL
and TLS protocols. A SocketTools Secure Library Edition license
must be purchased to use the security features in this library.
Requirements
This library is supported on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows
