Documentation
The SVGigE API documentation is provided in the following documents:
 SVGigE SDK user guide.pdf – an overview documentation (this document)
 SVGigE.h – a header file with inline documentation for each function
 Documentation\index.html – a html based documentation that has been generated
from the inline information in the SVGigE.h document

The system architecture has been chosen accordingly to the following objectives:
 Multiple cameras can be connected over the network to a single PC where a
SVGigE.dll along with transport layer DLLs provide for a simultaneous access to all
cameras
 Multiple client applications can use the same SVGigE.dll for connecting to cameras
 An application can use a subset or all of the cameras simultaneously
 Multiple streaming channels can be opened by an application, one to each of the
cameras in order to perform different further image processing, for example sending
all images to a viewer and running an image processing on them for each of the
images
NOTE: Currently each camera should be controlled only by a single dedicated
application although the system architecture would allow for connecting multiple
applications to a single camera. The reason is that each camera maintains only a
single control channel. Thus a second client application would not get a handle on the
camera as long as another client maintains a control channel to that camera.
Looking at the system architecture it should become obvious that the DLL needs a
handle for performing operations on a camera container, on a camera or on a
streaming channel respectively. The client application will obtain those handles when
