* Package name : snap7 Version : 1.4.1 Upstream Author : Davide Nardella <softw...@masmec.com> * URL : http://snap7.sourceforge.net/ * License : LGPL-3.0+ Programming Lang: C Description : Siemens S7 PLCs communications library -- dev files The new CPUs 1200/1500 and SINAMICS Drives are also partially supported. Although it has been designed to overcome the limitations of OPC servers when transferring large amounts of high speed data in industrial facilities, it scales well down to small Linux based arm boards such as Raspberry PI, BeagleBone Black, pcDuino and CubieBoard. . Three specialized components, Client, Server and Partner, allow you to definitively integrate your PC based systems into a PLC automation chain.\ . Main features: * Native multi-architecture design (32/64 bit). * Platform independent, currently are supported Windows (from NT 4.0 up to Windows 8), Linux, BSD, Oracle Solaris 11. * Fully scalable, starting from blade servers down to Raspberry PI board. * No dependence on any third-party libraries, no installation needed, zero configuration. * Three Different native thread models for performance optimization: Win32 threads/ Posix threads / Solaris 11 threads. * Two data transfer models: classic synchronous and asynchronous. * Two data flow models: polling and unsolicited (PLC transfers data when it wants to). . This package contains the development files. Remark: This package is maintained by Gijs Molenaar with sponsorship by Michael Crusoe at https://salsa.debian.org/debian/snap7
