Chapter 2 SVID IPC Library Function Descriptions
This chapter describes a set of C/iX library functions that provides
interprocess communication services to applications requiring information
exchange and resource synchronization between multiple processes.
These C/iX library functions emulate the behavior of a set of
interprocess communication and synchronization functions defined by the
AT&T System V Interface Definition (SVID2). For this reason, the set of
IPC functions provided in the MPE/iX Developer's Kit is referred to as
"SVID IPC."
This chapter in organized in the following manner:
* Overview of the SVID IPC facilities
* Using the SVID IPC library
* Managing SVID IPC services
* Conformance and implementation considerations
* Detailed descriptions of SVID IPC functions
* Descriptions of SVID IPC headers
