|
722 | A simple form of RPC - sends a message to the given C<$port> with the |
|
|
723 | given contents (C<@msg>), but adds a reply port to the message. |
|
|
724 | |
|
|
725 | The reply port is created temporarily just for the purpose of receiving |
|
|
726 | the reply, and will be C<kil>ed when no longer needed. |
|
|
727 | |
|
|
728 | A reply message sent to the port is passed to the C<$callback> as-is. |
|
|
729 | |
|
|
730 | If an optional time-out (in seconds) is given and it is not C<undef>, |
|
|
731 | then the callback will be called without any arguments after the time-out |
|
|
732 | elapsed and the port is C<kil>ed. |
|
|
733 | |
|
|
734 | If no time-out is given, then the local port will monitor the remote port |
|
|
735 | instead, so it eventually gets cleaned-up. |
|
|
736 | |
|
|
737 | Currently this function returns the temporary port, but this "feature" |
|
|
738 | might go in future versions unless you can make a convincing case that |
|
|
739 | this is indeed useful for something. |
