Messaging Overview

Provides a framework for multi-protocol messaging, and support for particular messaging protocols.

Messaging offers opportunities to build highly-featured message client applications, and to create plug-in modules to support individual messaging protocols. The set of components that make up such a plug-in module is called a Message Type Module (MTM). All interaction with lower-level communication protocols, such as TCP/IP, is performed by the MTMs.

Functionality is provided by a number of APIs. Use them as follows:
