Real-time Interface (RTAPI)

The Real-time Interface (RTAPI) is a Win32-like set of API calls that can be used within RTSS processes and RTDLLs to write deterministic code in C or C++. A subset of calls can also be used with in Windows applications (32 or 64-bit) to allow for communication between Windows and RTSS processes.

There is also a managed code interface for RTAPI to allow managed Windows applications to communicate with RTSS processes.
