RPC Connect Server Local

lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal()

Establish a connection to the LayGO RPC Server on the local host.

Syntax
#include "laygo.h"

LServerId lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal
    (
          void
    );
Description

lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal() may be used in place of lgo_RpcConnectServer() to establish a connection to a LayGO RPC Server. lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal() tries to locate the server running on the local host. This is primarily useful in environments where RPC name service is not available.

lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal() must be the first API function called when using the RPC version of LayGO. If lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal() fails, it is not safe to call any other API function. Failure to observe this restriction may result in an application exception.

Clients can connect to only one server at a time.

Return Values

If successful, lgo_RpcConnectServerLocal() returns a non-negative value. Otherwise, it returns a negative value indicating the reason it failed. Possible unsuccessful return values are:
