Service Processes
Often in client-server style designs, there is a need to concurrently service requests from various clients by the server.
This section describes a generic skeleton for creating a multi-process service.
Unlike generic RPC functions that rely on TCP/IP, real-time applications often must use the highest performance communication interface at hand.
You may want to implement a service if you are writing a device or protocol driver that multiple applications may use.
The source for a skeleton implementing service threads are included in the INtime sample “INtime process service sample”.
