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 proce-
dure will delegate the actual work to the remote location iden-
tified 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.
