Arguments

Returns

Non-nil on success, or nil on failure.

Description

This function initializes the interprocess communication system to allow this task to make calls to register_point, register_existing_point, send_async and send_string_async. It requests queue information from the given task. A deadlock situation could occur if two tasks attempt to initialize asynchronous communication with one another at the same time. The queue server task, qserve, must be running for this call to succeed.

Example

Gamma> init_ipc("mytask","mytask_q");
t
Gamma> task = locate_task("server", t);
#<Task: 32271>
Gamma> init_async_ipc(task);
t
