The present invention relates to a method of achieving communication via a
network with the aid of a wireless application protocol (WAP) between a
first application (A1) in a first computer unit (A) and a second
application in a second computer unit, wherein said first application (A1)
is a Windows.RTM. application. The first computer unit (A) includes a
WinSock TCP base provider (2) operating beneath WinSock SPI (3), and a
TCP/UDP/IP stack (4) operating beneath said WinSock TCP base provider (2).
The first application (A1) includes a function for communicating by means
of TCP/IP via the TCP/UDP/IP stack (4) and the WinSock TCP base provider
(2). The first computer unit (A) also includes a module (5) and a WAP
stack (6). The module (5) includes the function of forming an interface
between said WAP stack (6) and the first application (A1).
