| Multi-Client object | |
The multi-client object manages connections to multiple server in parallel. | |
| Client API | |
The client object manages the connection with the Player server; it is responsible for reading new data, setting data transmission modes and so on. | |
| Device API | |
The device object provides a common interface to the functionality that is shared by all device proxies (in OOP parlance, it is a base class). | |
| Device proxies | |
Each interface has a corresponding proxy. | |

Detailed Description
A C client library for the player server.
libplayerc is a client library for the player server. It is written in C to maximize portability, and in the expectation that users will write bindings for other languages (such as Python and Java) against this library; Python bindings are already available.
Be sure to check out the example.
The data modes section is important reading for all client writers.
