Initialization Routines

# Initialization Module

This module resisters all the plug & play software modules which will be used in the program on client side (The server has it's own initialization module). None of the functions in this module are called from the Library. They are uniquely a help for the application programmer in order to set up the functionality of the Library.

The initialization consists of definiting the following bindings:

- Between a source media type and a dest media type (conversion)
- Between media types and external viewers/presenters
- Between an access method and a protocol module

This module is implemented by HTInit.c, and it is a part of the W3C Reference Library.

THE APPLICATION MAY USE THESE FUNCTIONS BUT IT IS NOT REQUIRED

PLEASE SEE THE HTBInit MODULE FOR STANDARD BINDINGS BETWEEN FILE EXTENSIONS AND MEDIA TYPES.

    #ifndef HTINIT_H
    #define HTINIT_H
    #include "WWWLib.h"

## Media Type Conversions

The Converters are used to convert a media type to another media type, or to present it on screen. This is a part of the stream stack algorithm. The Presenters are also used in the stream stack, but are initialized separately.

    #include "HTML.h"			/* Uses HTML/HText interface */
    #include "HTPlain.h"			/* Uses HTML/HText interface */

    #include "HTTeXGen.h"
    #include "HTMLGen.h"
    #include "HTMIME.h"
    #include "HTBound.h"
    #include "HTGuess.h"
    #include "HTRules.h"
    #include "HTWSRC.h"
    #include "HTFWrite.h"
    #include "HTNewsLs.h"

    extern void HTConverterInit	(HTList * conversions);

## Presenters

The Presenters are used to present a media type to the use by calling an external program, for example a post script viewer. This is a part of the stream stack algorithm. The Converters are also used in the stream stack, but are initialized separately.

    extern void HTPresenterInit	(HTList * conversions);

## Converters and Presenters

This function is only defined in order to preserve backward compatibility.

    extern void HTFormatInit	(HTList * conversions);

## Protocol Modules

Set up default bindings between access schemes and the set of protocol modules in the Library.

    #include "HTIcons.h"
    #include "WWWHTTP.h"
    #include "HTFile.h"
    #include "HTFTP.h"
    #include "HTGopher.h"
    #include "HTTelnet.h"
    #include "HTNews.h"

    #ifdef HT_DIRECT_WAIS
    #include "HTWAIS.h"
    #endif

    extern void HTAccessInit (void);

## File Suffix Setup

This functions defines a basic set of file suffixes and the corresponding media types.

    extern void HTFileInit (void);

## Register Callbacks For the NET manager

We register two often used callback functions: a BEFORE and a AFTER callback Not done automaticly - may be done by application!

    #include "HTHome.h"

    extern void HTNetInit (void);

## Register Callbacks for the ALERT Manager

We register a set of alert messages Not done automaticly - may be done by application!

    #include "HTDialog.h"

    extern void HTAlertInit (void);

    #endif

End of HTInit Module.
