rpc_set_fault_mode(3ncs) rpc_set_fault_mode(3ncs)
Name
rpc_set_fault_mode - set the fault-handling mode for a server (server only)
Syntax
#include <idl/c/rpc.h>
unsigned long rpc_$set_fault_mode(state)
unsigned long state;
Arguments
state If `true' (not zero), the server exits when a fault occurs. If `false' (zero), the server reflects faults back to the client.
Description
The function controls the handling of faults that occur in user server routines.
In the default mode, the server reflects faults back to the client and continues processing. Calling with value other than zero for state
sets the fault-handling mode so that the server sends an rpc_$comm_failure fault back to the client and exits. Calling with state equal to
zero resets the fault-handling mode to the default.
This function returns the previous state of the fault-handling mode.
Diagnostics
