X.25 Call Setup

Encode Call Request

call_EncodeCallRequest()

Encode address, facilities and user data into a call request packet.

Syntax
#include "call.h"

LResult call_EncodeCallRequest
    (
        CallSetupData     data,
        CallBuffer        buffer,
        CallBufferSize    size
    );
datainput for data to encode
bufferoutput buffer for call request packet
sizesize of buffer in bytes
Description

call_EncodeCallRequest() encodes a C language representation of address, facilities and user data into a call request packet. The example code given below shows how to set up the data structures passed to call_EncodeCallRequest(). Facilities and user data are optional.

Return Values

If successful, call_EncodeCallRequest() returns a non-negative value indicating the number of bytes of encoded data. Otherwise, it returns a negative value. Failure to encode indicates that the input parameters are invalid.

/* Set up address information */

/* Set up user data (4 bytes of 0) */
