[OpenMap Users] Asynchronous communication with LinkLayer

Hello,

I am a developer for the Air Mobility Operations Simulator (AMOS) being
developed by us for AMC. The maptool application of AMOS reads simulation
results from a database and displays them on a map. A kind of animation
playback of the simulation. When an icon is selected on the map, the
playback is paused and maptool displays detailed information in a pop-up
window. It currently interfaces with Oilstock and Arcview.

I have written a C++ implementation of the Link Protocol and a test driver
which mimics what the maptool application will do once integrated.

What I have found out using this test driver is that the LinkLayer only
listens for data on the socket after sending a MapRequest or an
ActionRequest.

I would like to be able to send a graphic across the link at anytime and
have it displayed, or deleted or whatever.

Am I doing something wrong or am I trying to do something that is not
supported by the LinkLayer?

Stu
