NAME
deleg_proc - Creation of comm delegates (procedures)
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.3
package require interp::delegate::proc ?0.2?
::interp::delegate::proc ?-async? name arguments comm id
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a single command for the convenient creation of procedures which delegate the
actual work to a remote location via a "channel" created by the package comm.
API
::interp::delegate::proc ?-async? name arguments comm id
This commands creates a procedure which is named by name and returns its fully-qualified name. All
invokations of this procedure will delegate the actual work to the remote location identified by
the comm channel comm and the endpoint id.
The name of the remote procedure invoked by the delegator is [namespace tail name]. I.e.,
namespace information is stripped from the call.
Normally the generated procedure marshalls the arguments, and returns the result from the remote
procedure as its own result. If however the option -async was specified then the generated
procedure will not wait for a result and return immediately.
