NAME
     libsp - Spread Group Communication Client Library

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
     The  Spread  libsp library implements the client SP interface to the Spread
     group communication or multicast message bus system.

DATA STRUCTURES
HEADER FILES
     sp.h is the main header and includes necessary defines and types.	It  also
     includes the other header files sp_events.h and sp_func.h.

     sp_events.h  declares the types and functions that make up the E Event-man-
     agement library.

     sp_func.h declares the functions of the SP interface. Since  sp.h	includes
     this you should not include this directly.

FILES
     No files are required for client applications using the SP library.

DIAGNOSTICS
     The  library  will not output any debugging information except in fatal er-
     rors.  The SP_error(3) function can be used to print an  informative  error
     message when SP functions return an error code.

BUGS
     None  currently known. Library is only thread-safe if the program is linked
     with libtsp.a not libsp.a.  The non-thread-safe  library  is  provided  for
     those  who  are writing single-threaded applications and do not want to pay
     the minimal performance penalty for locking.
