SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.3
package require snit ?1.1?
package require interp::delegate::method ?0.2?
::interp::delegate::method ?-async? name arguments comm id
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
This package provides a single command for use within snit type defini‐
tion (i.e. actually a snit::macro) for the convenient creation of meth‐
ods which delegate the actual work to a remote location via a "channel"
created by the package comm.
API
::interp::delegate::method ?-async? name arguments comm id
This commands creates a method which is named by name. All
invokations of this method will delegate the actual work to the
remote location identified by the comm channel comm and the end‐
point id.
The name of the remote method invoked by the delegator is iden‐
tical to the name of the method itself.
Normally the generated method marshalls the arguments, and
returns the result from the remote method as its own result. If
however the option -async was specified then the generated
method will not wait for a result and return immediately.
