NAME
RPC::pServer, RPC::pClient - Perl extensions for writing
pRPC servers and clients
DESCRIPTION
pRPC-modules (Perl RPC) is a package that simplifies the writing of
Perl based client/server applications. RPC::pServer is the package
used on the server side, and you guess what RPC::pClient is for.
See the RPC::pServer(3) and RPC::pClient(3) manpages for detailed
information.
pRPC works by defining a set of of functions that may be executed by the
client. For example, the server might offer a function "multiply" to the
client. Now a function call
@result = $con->Call('multiply', $a, $b);
on the client will be mapped to a corresponding call
multiply($con, $data, $a, $b);
on the server. The function call's result will be returned to the
client and stored in the array @result. Simple, eh? :-)
