NAME

RMI::Client::ForkedPipes - an RMI::Client implementation with a private out-of-process server

VERSION

This document describes RMI::Clinet::ForkedPipes v0.10.

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
$c1 = RMI::Client::ForkedPipes->new();
$remote_hash1 = $c1->call_eval('{}');
$remote_hash1{key1} = 123;
$c2 = RMI::Client::ForkedPipes->new('some_server',$arg1,$arg2);
            
          

DESCRIPTION

This subclass of RMI::Client forks a child process, and starts an RMI::Server::ForkedPipes in that process. It is useful for testing more complex RMI, and also to do things like use two versions of a module at once in the same program.

METHODS

peer_pid

            

              
              
Both the RMI::Client::ForkedPipes and RMI::Server::ForkedPipes have a method to 
return the process ID of their remote partner.
            
          

BUGS AND CAVEATS

See general bugs in RMI for general system limitations of proxied objects.
