Use Xsockets

There are now two ways to work with the Xsockets tool. You can work with the tool from the integrated client or work with the tool in a Web browser.

To work with an integrated version of Xsocket, you must configure the Xsockets tool. In addition to configuring the Xsockets tool for an integrated client, you must also complete the steps in Configure Xsockets to use a Web browser if you prefer to work with the tool in a browser environment. Many of the concepts are similar between the two versions of the tools. Both tools allow you to issue socket calls interactively and both tools provide errnos for issued socket calls; however, the interfaces do have some differences.

Note: If you want to work with socket programs that use the GSKit secure socket APIs, you must use the Web version of the tool.
