|
|
| 687 | |
|
|
| 688 | Nodes understand the following messages sent to them. Many of them take |
|
|
| 689 | arguments called C<@reply>, which will simply be used to compose a reply |
|
|
| 690 | message - C<$reply[0]> is the port to reply to, C<$reply[1]> the type and |
|
|
| 691 | the remaining arguments are simply the message data. |
|
|
| 692 | |
|
|
| 693 | While other messages exist, they are not public and subject to change. |

|

| 711 | =item eval => $string[ @reply] |
|
|
| 712 | |
|
|
| 713 | Evaluates the given string. If C<@reply> is given, then a message of the |
|
|
| 714 | form C<@reply, $@, @evalres> is sent. |
|
|
| 715 | |
|
|
| 716 | Example: crash another node. |

|
|

|
|
| 722 | Replies the the current node time to C<@reply>. |
|
|
| 723 | |
|
|
| 724 | Example: tell the current node to send the current time to C<$myport> in a |
|
|
| 725 | C<timereply> message. |
|
|
| 726 | |
|
