Installing TIPCSocket

Get TIPCSocket from RubyForge.

Example

Server:

require 'rubygems'
require 'tipcsocket'

include TIPCSocket::Constants

server_addr = TIPCNameSeq.new(18888, 17, 17, TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE)

s = TIPCSocket.new(:rdm)
s.bind(server_addr)

data, client = s.recvfrom(65535)

client = TIPCSocket.unpack_sockaddr(client)

p client

puts "server: message received: #{data}"

s.send("hello client!", 0, client)

s.close

Client:

require 'rubygems'
require 'tipcsocket'

include TIPCSocket::Constants

server_addr = TIPCName.new(18888, 17, TIPC_NODE_SCOPE)

s = TIPCSocket.new(:rdm)
s.send("hello server!", 0, server_addr)

msg = s.recv(65535)

puts "client: received response: #{msg}"

s.close
