ipcserver and ipcclient are command-line tools for building local-domain
|
|
client-server applications. They conform to the UNIX Client-Server
|
|
Program Interface, UCSPI.
|
|
|
|
ipcserver listens for connections on a local-domain stream socket, and
|
|
runs a program for each connection it accepts. The program environment
|
|
includes variables that hold the local and remote socket addresses, and
|
|
the effective user and group IDs of the process that called connect.
|
|
ipcserver offers a concurrency limit on acceptance of new connections,
|
|
and selective handling of connections based on client identity.
|
|
|
|
ipcclient requests a connection to a local-domain socket, and runs a
|
|
program. The program environment includes a variable that holds the
|
|
local socket address.
|
|
|
|
ipcperl is an example of an ipchandle server. It invokes a perl
|
|
subroutine for each request.
