The example shown above can of course also be applied to all
other structures.
Delphi
Since Delphi offers very straightforward support of structures,
using it to handle IO structures is a simple matter. Delphi also
provides a socket control element for network communication
that can be used for exchanging data with the Web-IO.
The following source text excerpts show how you can use the
ReadCounter and Counter structures to read the counter state of
an input counter.
First the IO structures ReadCounter and Counter need to be
defined as new variable types RReadCounter and RCounter.
RReadCounterr=packed record
send_sequence:word;
rec_sequence:word;
sruct_type:word;
length:word;
counter_index: word;
end;
