You have to set up the connection parameters either by using
OTOptionManagment() if you want to control everything programmatically
or by setting default options in the preferences panels (Remote access
and Modem control panel under OS 9, Network pane under X).
Also you have to listen to the events returned by your notifier
function as the I_OTConnect call is always asynchronous.

Le vendredi, 3 oct 2003, ` 15:46 Europe/Paris, Todd Casey a icrit :
I am trying to write an application that will run on Mac OS 8.6 -
10.2.6 that establishes a PPP Internet Connection programmatically
without the users intervention. I would also like to have the
username/password/access number hidden from the user (is this possible
using OTOptionManagment()?).
Here is what I currently have. The code compiles and runs but it does
not seem to even open the modem port. I am currently running OS
10.2.6. Is Open Transport the best method to use in establishing a PPP
connection?
// CODE BEGINS
// linked OpenTransportLib
err = InitOpenTransportInContext(kInitOTForApplicationMask, nil);
notifier = NewOTNotifyUPP(Notifier); // I have a Notifier callback
function defined earlier
ep = OTOpenEndpointInContext(OTCreateConfiguration(kPPPControlName),
0, NULL, &err, nil);
if(kOTNoError == err)
{
err = OTInstallNotifier(ep, notifier, ep);
err = OTSetAsynchronous(ep);
err = OTSetBlocking(ep);
err = OTIoctl(ep, I_OTGetMiscellaneousEvents, (void *)1);
err = OTIoctl(ep, I_OTConnect, NULL);
Listen to the events returned by the notifier before disposing of the
endpoint and handle error codes returned
err = OTCloseProvider(ep);
}
if(notifier)
{
Not necessary because done by OTCloseProvider()
DisposeOTNotifyUPP(notifier);
}
// CODE ENDS
What am I doing wrong? I would greatly appreciate any help/info. I am
new to Mac development and I have tried to search through the Internet
and developer.apple.com before posting here.
Thanks,
Todd
