ToolTalk User's Guide

What does rpc.ttdbserverd do?

The ToolTalk database server daemon performs three major functional duties:

  1. It stores the ToolTalk session IDs of sessions with clients that have joined a file using the tt_file_join call.

  2. It stores file-scoped messages that are queued because the message disposition is TT_QUEUED and a handler that can handle the message has not yet been started.

  3. It stores ToolTalk objects specs.

  4. It responds to requests into the ToolTalk filename mapping API.
