rref

Arguments: data &key type symbol-mode package-mode symbol-name symbol-package

This is a variant of rpc-ref that omits the port argument. The implicit port bound by with-remote-port is the port that is used in the call.

This function creates an explicit reference object. If no keyword arguments are specified, then a default conversion is performed. The type keyword is defined in the table in Data Type Qualifiers in rpc.htm. It is used to control the data conversion explicitly. The other keyword arguments, also described in Data Type Qualifiers in rpc.htm, are used only when a symbol reference is created.

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