NAME

       bpsink - Bundle Protocol reception test program

SYNOPSIS

       bpsink ownEndpointId

DESCRIPTION

       bpsink uses Bundle Protocol to receive application data units from a remote bpsource application task.  For each application data unit it
       receives, it prints the ADU's length and -- if length is less than 80 -- its text.

       bpsink terminates upon receiving the SIGQUIT signal, i.e., ^C from the keyboard.

EXIT STATUS

       0   bpsink has terminated.  Any problems encountered during operation will be noted in the ion.log log file.

FILES

       No configuration files are needed.

ENVIRONMENT

       No environment variables apply.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Diagnostic messages produced by bpsink are written to the ION log file ion.log.

       Can't attach to BP.
	   bpadmin has not yet initialized Bundle Protocol operations.

       Can't open own endpoint.
	   Another application has already opened ownEndpointId.  Terminate that application and rerun.
