 +====== C Client Library ======
 +
 +[[#V3DSClientLib|V3DSClientLib]] provides a strict C function interface. Any language that supports C, such C++, Objective-C, Java, Matlab and Python, can use V3DSClientLib to access real-time data from Visual3DServer.
 +The most important functions are:
 +
 +''%%v3ds_init()%%'' and ''%%v3ds_kill()%%''
 +''%%v3ds_connect()%%'' and ''%%v3ds_disconnect()%%''
 +''%%v3ds_setSystems()%%'', ''%%v3ds_setPipeline()%%'' and ''%%v3ds_setLinkModel()%%''
 +''%%v3ds_installCallback()%%'' for clients that are pushed data
 +''%%v3ds_getValue()%%'' or ''%%v3ds_getResults()%%'' for clients that poll for data
 +The remaining functions are mostly for examining and adjusting the internal state of V3DSClientLib.
 +
 +C and C++ clients have the option of polling for data or being pushed data through an installed C callback function. Matlab and Python clients must poll for data currently.
 +
 +[[#Example_Client_Code|Example client code]] is provided in ANSI C, C++, Matlab and Python to help you get started using V3DSClientLib.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +==== V3DSClientLib ====
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== bool v3ds_init(...) ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%const int knTcpTimeout%%'' - the TCP timeout in milliseconds (ms).''%%const int knTcpBufferSize%%'' - the TCP buffer size in bytes (B).''%%const int knUdpBufferSize%%'' - the UDP buffer size in bytes (B).''%%const int knSleep%%'' - the thread sleep in milliseconds (ms).''%%const char* pchPriority%%'' - pointer to a character array containing the thread priority.
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%bool%%'' - returns ''%%true%%'' if the library is successfully initialized, otherwise returns ''%%false%%''.
 +  * ****Description:**** Initializes the library by allocating the TCP and UDP buffers.
 +
 +Recommend default values are:
 +''%% %%''
 +- TCP timeout: 5000 ms
 +- TCP buffer size: 16383 B
 +- UDP buffer size: 32767 B
 +- thread sleep: 1 ms
 +- thread priority: "normal"
 +Thread priority can be one of "Critical", "Highest", "High", "Normal", "Low", "Lowest", "Idle". Thread priority is case insensitive.
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== bool v3ds_kill() ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%none%%''
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%bool%%'' - returns ''%%true%%'' if the library was successfully killed, otherwise returns ''%%false%%''.
 +  * ****Description:**** This function will:1) disconnect the client from Visual3DServer (if connected),2) stop the data acquisition thread,3) de-allocate the TCP and UDP buffers.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== int v3ds_getTcpTimeout() ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%none%%''
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%int%%'' - returns the TCP timeout in milliseconds (ms).
 +  * ****Description:**** The TCP timeout is how long the client waits for a response from Visual3DServer. The TCP timeout is set when the client calls ''%%v3ds_init()%%''.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== int v3ds_getTcpBufferSize() ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%none%%''
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%int%%'' - returns the TCP buffer size in bytes (B).
 +  * ****Description:**** The TCP buffer size is the amount of memory allocated for network messages sent between the client and Visual3DServer. The TCP buffer size is set when the client calls ''%%v3ds_init()%%''.
 +
 +Importnat: the TCP buffer must be large enough to hold the longest possible message. 16384 bytes is the recommended minimum size.
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== int v3ds_getUdpBufferSize() ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%none%%''
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%int%%'' - returns the UDP buffer size in bytes (B).
 +  * ****Description:**** The UDP buffer size is the amount of memory allocated for network data sent from Visual3DServer to the client. The UDP buffer size is set when the client calls ''%%v3ds_init()%%''.
 +
 +Important: the UDP buffer must be large enough to hold the longest possible data results. 32676 bytes is the recommended minimum size.
 +Note that the data results length is typically proportional to the length of the pipeline script set in the client.
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== const char* v3ds_getPriority() ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%none%%''
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%const char*%%'' - returns a pointer to a character array containing the thread priority.
 +  * ****Description:**** Thread priority can be one of "Critical", "Highest", "High", "Normal", "Low", "Lowest", "Idle". Thread priority is case insensitive. The thread priority is set when the client calls ''%%v3ds_init()%%''.
 +
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== int v3ds_getSleep() ===
 +
 +  * ****Arguments:**** ''%%none%%''
 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%int%%'' - returns the thread sleep in milliseconds (ms).
 +  * ****Description:**** The thread sleep is the amount of time the library waits (sleeps) at the end of the data acquisition loop for the UDP socket.
 +
 +A small sleep value makes the data acquisition loop run faster, minimizing the UDP packet size and the possibly of missing frames from Visaul3DServer. However, less CPU time will be available to other programs.
 +A larger sleep value makes the data acquisition loop run slower, increasing the UDP packet size and the possibly of missing frames from Visual3DServer. However, more CPU time will be available to other programs.
 +In general, a lower sleep value is appropriate, especially if Visual3DServer or the 3rd party mocap software is running on a different machine.
 +Thread sleep is set when the client calls ''%%v3ds_init()%%''.
 +
 +----
 +
 +=== bool v3ds_connect(...) ===

 +  * ****Return:**** ''%%bool%%'' - returns ''%%true%%'' if the client connects to Visual3DServer, otherwise returns ''%%false%%''.
 +  * ****Description:**** The IP address refers to the machine that is running Visual3DServer.If the client and Visual3DServer are running on the same machine, then the IP address can be "localhost" (case insensitive) or 127.0.0.1.If Visual3DServer is running on a different machine anywhere on the internet, then the IP address is that of the host machine.Use a shell command like 'ipconfig' to determine a machine's IP address and 'ping' to confirm network traffic is possible.
 +
 +The port number for Visual3DServer is 12099.
 +Here are examples for the descriptive client strings:
 +Client name: "MyClientApp"--any client name is allowed.
 +Client version: "1.0.0"--any version number format is allowed.
 +Client date: "2014-Aug-25"--any date format is allowed.

 +==== Example Client Code ====
 +
 +Example client code is provided in [[#ANSI_C_Example_Client_Code|ANSI C]], [[#C++_Example_Client_Code|C++]], [[#Matlab_Example_Client_Code|Matlab]] and [[#Python_Example_Client_Code|Python]] to help you get started using [[#V3DSClientLib|V3DSClientLib]].
 +
 +Note that the examples generally contain less error checking code and more global variables than a typical real-world program. This was done so that the important details of using V3DSClientLib would stand out. Ideally your clients would be more fully and robustly designed.

 +=== C++ Example Client Code ===
 +
 +The C++ example is very similar to the C example.
 +
 +The notable difference is the optional use of a ''%%std::deque<CResType>%%'' to hold the results coming from Visaul3DServer. C++ clients can directly access this deque of results instead of calling various ''%%v3ds_get..()%%'' functions.
 +
 +When using a callback function, C++ clients can pass a deque of results to ''%%v3ds_parseXML()%%'' to be populated.
 +
 +When polling, C++ clients can call ''%%getResults()%%'' to get a deque of results. The return from ''%%getResults()%%'' must be cast from ''%%void*%%'' to ''%%std::deque<CResType>*%%''.
