Remote Function Call

There are two ways to make remote function calls:

• call a built-in function remotely

• run a local function (user-defined) remotely

Syntax

Build a remote connection:

$ host = xdb(URL, Port)

Remote function call:

$ host("functionName", functionParameters)

or

$ remoteRun(host, "functionName", functionParameters)

or

$ remoteRunWithCompression(host, "functionName", functionParameters)

Remote system function call

$ h=xdb("localhost",80);
$ h("sum",rand(100, 1000));
50971

$ remoteRun(h, "sum", rand(100, 1000));
48704

Remote user defined function call

$ def f1(a): sin(rand(100.0,a))
$ def f2(a,b):return b+f1(a)
$ pools=each(xdb, "localhost",82)
$ result = peach(remoteRun{, f2, 100, 0.5}, pools)
$ result;
