B. A Simple Demonstration of How the ToolTalk Service Works
The ToolTalk service provides an allocation stack in the ToolTalk API library to store information it gives to you. For example, if you ask for the sessid of the default session with tt_default_session, the ToolTalk service returns the address of the character string in the allocation stack (a char * pointer) that contains the sessid. After you retrieve the sessid, you can dispose of the character string to clean up the allocation stack.
