The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between many kinds of Unix programs, including X programs and Tcl/Tk programs. It also provides an easy way for users to communicate with these XPA-enabled programs by executing XPA client commands in the shell or by utilizing such commands in scripts. ... A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with other client programs (and users). ...
This ChangeLog covers the XPA 2 implementation. ... Fixed several memory leaks in the Tcl wrappers (tcl.c). ... Add setjmp/longjmp support to xalloc. ... Fixed bug in MINGW port of xpans in which an XPA server that terminated via an interrupt was not being properly removed from the list of registered access points. ... Added support for -remote command, which registers the access point in the XPA name server of the specified remote server, and gives the remote server access rights to the access point. ...
