#ifndef _NORM_SOCKET
#define _NORM_SOCKET

// IMPORTANT NOTE:  THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. This code, if/when fully developed, will be 
//                  "promoted" from the 'examples' directory to a standard part of the NORM
//                  library if appropriate.

// This provides a higher level API that facilitates a socket-like programming interface
// to use NORM for a specific usage pattern.  The usage pattern uses NORM_OBJECT_STREAM
// (as a byte-stream initially with eventual support for NORM's message-stream capability, too)
// where "clients" explicitly connect to a "server" and bi-directional stream communication is
// established.  This enables ACK-based flow control to/from the server and client(s). This
// is supported for NORM unicast and also (as this is completed) an asymmetric model where the
// server can multicast to the clients while the clients unicast back to the server.


// TODO:
//
// 0) Make "NormInstanceHandle" optional for Listen/Connect/Accept
//    (for eventual blocking usage, it wouldn't be needed)
// 1) Support asymmetric server->multicast, client->unicast model (DONE)
// 2) Provide non-blocking option for read/write calls
// 3) leverage ICMP (e.g., port unreachable) feedback to detect connect() failure (DONE)
// 4) provide means for connect() to time out??? (DONE)
// 5) Separate socket open (i.e. session creation) from connect/accept to allow
//    opportunity for application to set NORM parameters prior to sender/receiver start
// 6) Extend to include message stream, and data/file object sockets
// 7) Option to associate NORM_INFO w/ stream (or objects eventually)


// Here is a list of NORM parameters that need to be set _before_ sender or receiver
// startup.  These will need to be "NormSocket" parameters that can be set after
// NormOpen() but before NormListen(), NormAccept(), or NormConnect():
//
// a) SSM source address (perhaps incorporate into NormListen() and NormConnect()?)
// b) TTL (could be set _after_ connect/accept, but may be something convenient to preset?
// c) TOS (same as for TTL)
// d) Fragmentation (not one to worry much about initially?)
// e) FEC parameters (block size, parity count, segment size, "auto" parity)
// f) Buffer size (sender, stream, receiver)
// g) cache bounds / limits
