Detailed Description

The local API has a server side handling commands and a client part issuing commands.

The commands supported are:

• Raise: Bring OpenCPN to top of the GUI stack.
• Open <filename>: Open a GPX waypoint or route file.
• Quit: Exit server application.
• GetRestEndpoint: Returns an address/port tuple string like 128.0.0.1/1503 giving the adress/port used by the REST server.

Besides GetRestAddress all commands returns a std::pair with a boolean and a string. The boolean indicates successful completion, the string is either an error message or, for GetRestEndpoint, the address/port endpoint.
