Supported ACSE/Presentation and ROSE Calls
ACSE/Presentation Calls and Primitives
ACSE/Presentation Primitives
The following table lists the supported ACSE/Presentation layer service
primitives. These primitives are used with the ap_rcv() and ap_snd()
calls as described below.
Some of the primitives contain a shorter name in BOLD under the
primitive's name. On systems that support a maximum length of 14
characters for file names, use the name listed in bold with the MAN
feature. Primitives with no short name can be used on all systems.
The primitives are grouped in the sequence used in an application. For
example, the A_ASSOC_xxx primitives are listed in the order:
A_ASSOC_REQ (request)
A_ASSOC_IND (indication)
A_ASSOC_RSP (response)
A_ASSOC_CNF (confirmation)
