The protocols implements a state machine style * execution where each state is executed one after the other. The * application controls these states and their order of execution. * * After the protocol has been executed, an final callback is called * which the application may use to do post-protocol work or to start * perhaps other protocols. These routines are generic and the actual * protocols, their types, callback and final callbacks functions must * be implemented in the application. * ***/ #ifndef SILCPROTOCOL_H #define SILCPROTOCOL_H /****d* silccore/SilcProtocolAPI/SilcProtocolType * * NAME * * typedef unsigned char SilcProtocolType; * * DESCRIPTION * * Protocol type definition.
