DESCRIPTION¶
Please read
Name service facility, introduction first.
This package is internal and of no interest to users. It provides the commands
of the name service facility which are shared by the client and server
implemented by the packages
nameserv::server and
nameserv (the
client).
This service is built in top of and for the package
comm. It has nothing
to do with the Internet's Domain Name System. If the reader is looking for a
package dealing with that please see Tcllib's packages
dns and
resolv.
API¶
The package exports a single command, as specified below:
- ::nameserv::common::port
- The result returned by the command is the id of the default
TCP/IP port a nameservice server will listen on, and a name service client
will try to connect to.
