These are the $functions written by Sirius Software which are not part of a product set (like the $Web functions which are part of Janus Web, or the $Sock functions which are one API for Janus Sockets). Many of these functions are deprecated in favor of an OO API. Matching methods are noted on each $function page.

Also available is the more succinct Category page.

See Notation conventions for methods for information about the conventions followed in the method descriptions.
