techtalk@mantaro.comUsing object oriented programming in C++ can improve the developer’s efficiency in implementing communications protocols. With careful use, C++ does not add intolerable overhead to executing communications protocol software. This paper will review how to:
An implementation is presented that uses C++ classes to implement a layered protocol. This implementation also demonstrates how the tasking/queuing model can be separated from the layered implementation. Methods for efficiently parsing message headers and use caching for low overhead creation of message buffers are also reviewed.
