rrpc_are_you_there() rrpc_are_you_there()
Name
rrpc_are_you_there - check whether a server is answering requests
Format
#include <rrpc.h>
void rrpc_$are_you_there( handle, *status)
handle_t handle;
status_$t *status;
Arguments
handle A remote procedure call (RPC) handle.
status The completion status.
Description
The call checks whether a server is answering requests.
Restrictions
On the client side, because of the way the calls are defined and implemented in the run-time library you must explicitly call into the
entry point vector table for the interface to send an request across the network. The following is an example of a call that works as
desired.
(*rrpc_$client_epv.rrpc_$are_you_there)(handle, &status);
The server side stub routine calls the entry point on behalf of the client. The results of the call are then passed back to the client.

rrpc_inq_interfaces - obtain a list of the interfaces that a server exports
Syntax
#include <idl/c/rrpc.h>
void rrpc_$inq_interfaces(handle, max_ifs, ifs, l_if, status)
handle_t handle;
unsigned long max_ifs;
rrpc_$interface_vec_t ifs[];
unsigned long *l_if;
status_$t *status;
Arguments
handle An RPC handle.
max_ifs The maximum number of elements in the array of interface specifiers.
ifs An array of rpc_$if_spec_t.
l_if The index of the last element in the returned array.
status The completion status. If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it was
successful.
Description
The routine returns an array of RPC interface specifiers.
Restrictions
On the client side, because of the way the calls are defined and implemented in the run-time library you must explicitly call into the
entry point vector table for the interface to send an request across the network. The following is an example of a call that works
(*rrpc_$client_epv.rrpc_$inq_interfaces)(handle,
(unsigned long) max_ifs, ifs, &l_if, &status);
The server side stub routines call the entry point on behalf of the client. The results of the call are then passed back to the client.

We have quite a few threads about this subject. I have collected some of them and arranged them by the OS which is primarily discussed in the thread. That is because the exact procedure depends on the OS involved. What's more, since you often need to interact with the boot process, the... (0 Replies)
I'm writing a command shell, and I want to be able to detect when the user presses an arrow key (otherwise it just prints [[A, [[B, etc.). I know it's relatively easy (although somewhat more time-consuming) to detect keystrokes in noncanonical mode, but I've noticed that the bash shell detects... (4 Replies)
I'm learning off Linux (Ubuntu) right now. I want to move up to Unix, but I don't want to rush like I did when it came to Windows --> to Linux. What is the best Unix OS that fits in pretty well with Ubuntu.
In other words is there kind of an equal Linux with Unix?
Also what do I need to... (10 Replies)
I noticed my hostname is <my-full-name>s-macbook.local. I'm not sure exactly what information leaves the local network, and whether the hostname is included, but if it is, this would mean people on the Internet can look at my hostname and see who I am. Before anyone says that's not possible,... (4 Replies)
