rcall

Arguments: function-ref &rest arg-refs

This function, along with the others listed at the end of this page, is used to make remote calls within the dynamic scope of a with-remote-port form. This function returns the value(s) of the remote call.

The first argument is a function reference that may be a string, a symbol, or a remote reference to a string, symbol or function (see Operator Conversion in rpc.htm). Remote references are described in Data representation in rpc.htm. The remote reference is resolved to a function in the remote environment, and the function is called with the arguments passed in the call. The value of the expression is the value or values returned by the remote call. These may be local values or remote references.

This function performs its call returning the value to the caller.

See also rcall, rcall-ignore, rcall-one-way, rapply, rapply-ignore, and rapply-one-way.

See also rpc.htm for general information on the Remote Procedure Call utility in Allegro CL.
