SDLCHDLC

SDLCHDLC is a software library that implements the High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) protocol for the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) framework. HDLC is a bit-oriented data link layer protocol used in telecommunications. SDL is a cross-platform development library designed to provide low-level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics hardware via SDL. SDLCHDLC allows developers to integrate HDLC communication capabilities into their SDL-based applications, which can be useful for various purposes, including embedded systems, networking simulations, or custom communication protocols. The library typically handles the framing, error detection (using CRC), and basic flow control aspects of the HDLC protocol. It provides functions to construct and parse HDLC frames, send and receive data over a communication channel, and manage the protocol state. Developers can use SDLCHDLC to build applications that communicate using HDLC, leveraging SDL's platform independence for broader deployment. The specific features and implementation details of SDLCHDLC may vary depending on the version and origin of the library, but its core purpose remains to provide HDLC functionality within the SDL ecosystem.
