Creates a path report descriptor.
IPCDEST(socketkind,nodename,nodelen,protocol,protoaddr,protolen, flags,opt,pathdesc,result)
socketkind | |
| reference in FORTRAN. Defines the type of socket. Must |
| be 3 to specify a call socket. Other values are reserved for |
| future use. |
nodename | Packed array of characters (Pascal); Integer |
| array (FORTRAN), by reference. A variable length |
| array of ASCII characters identifying the node on which the |
| path report descriptor is to be created. The syntax of the node |
| name is node[.domain[.organization]], which is |
| further described in the NSARPA/000 User/Programmer |
| Reference Manual. |
| Default: You may omit the organization, organization and |
| domain, or all parts of the node name. When organization or |
| organization and domain are omitted, they will default to the |
| local organization and/or domain. If the nodelen parameter is |
| set to zero, nodename is ignored and the node name defaults |
| to the local node. |
nodelen | |
| reference in FORTRAN. The length in bytes of the |
| nodename parameter. If this parameter is set to zero, the |
| nodename parameter is ignored and the node name defaults to |
| the local node. A fullyqualified node name length may be 50 |
| bytes long. |
protocol | |
| reference in FORTRAN. Defines the Transport Layer |
| protocol to be used. Must be 4 to indicate the Transmission |
| Control Protocol (TCP). Other values are reserved for future |
| use. |
protoaddr | integer array, by reference. A data buffer that |
| contains a TCP protocol address. Recommended Range: The |
| recommended range of TCP addresses for user applications is |
| from 30767 to 32767 decimal. |
protolen | |
| reference in FORTRAN. The length in bytes of the |
| protocol address. TCP protocol addresses are two bytes long. |
flags | |
| special request bits. This parameter is reserved for future use. |
| All bits must be clear (set to zero). |
opt | No options are defined for this call. |
pathdesc | |
| descriptor. Describes the location of named call socket. May |
| be used in a subsequent IPCConnect call to establish a |
| connection to another process. |
result | |
| returned; zero if no error. |
