<h2>Design decisions<a class="headerlink" href="#design-decisions" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Use C++ with additional C API</p></li>
<li><p>Use exceptions</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Use macro wrapper over <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">try-catch</span></code> blocks when exceptions off (use <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">abort()</span></code> if <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">THROW()</span></code>)</p></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><p>Initializes and allocates in the constructor (might throw)</p>
<ul>
<li><p>easier code with exceptions ON, with exceptions OFF alloc/init failures are not treated as runtime error (program aborts)</p></li>
<li><p>break down long initialization in constructor into more private methods</p></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><p>Implements different devices using inheritance from <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">GenericModule</span></code>, which is the most general implementation of a common modem</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Internally uses templates with device specialization (modeled as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">DCE&lt;SpecificModule&gt;</span></code>) which could be used as well for some special cases,
such as implantation of a minimal device (ModuleIf), add new AT commands (oOnly in compile time), or using the Module with DTE only (no DCE, no Netif) for sending AT commands without network</p></li>
</ul>

</ul>

<section id="dce-collaboration-model">
<h2>DCE collaboration model<a class="headerlink" href="#dce-collaboration-model" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>The diagram describes how the DCE class collaborates with DTE, PPP and the device abstraction</p>

<section id="terminal-inheritance">
<h2>Terminal inheritance<a class="headerlink" href="#terminal-inheritance" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Terminal is a class which can read or write data, and can handle callbacks when data are available. UART specialization
is provided implementing these method using the uart driver.</p>
</section>
<section id="cmux-terminal">
<h2>CMUX terminal<a class="headerlink" href="#cmux-terminal" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>The below diagram depicts the idea of using CMUX terminal mode using the CMuxInstance class which is a terminal
(it implements the basic read/write methods) interfacing arbitrary number of virtual terminals,
but at the same time it is also composed of CMux class, which consumes the original terminal and uses its read/write methods
to multiplex the terminal.</p>
