Signatures defines the messages that can be addressed to objects of the type. A signature is divided by an arrow (=>) into two parts. The first part of a signature define matching criteria for incoming messages. The second part of a signature defines receiver values which the ToolTalk service adds to each message that matches the first part of the signature. These values specify the ptid of the program that implements the operation and the message's scope and disposition.
