This manual describes the application programming interface
(API) components, commands, and error messages of the ToolTalk®
service and how you modify your application to send and receive
ToolTalk messages.
The ToolTalk service supports several messaging styles. A
sender can address a ToolTalk message to a particular process, to
any interested process, to an object, or to an object type. Message
senders are not concerned with the locations of processes and objects
in any network; the ToolTalk service finds receiving processes and
objects.
