NAME

POE::TIKC - Transparent Inter-Kernel Communication (IKC)

SYNOPSIS

use POE qw(TIKC);

POE::TIKC->create_server({
	address => '127.0.0.1',	# default
	port => '2021',			# default
});

# You can now assume all connected clients' aliases are available # AFTER...you check if $POE::TIKC::connected == 1 before starting.

DESCRIPTION

This module connects many clients to one server and creates proxy sessions in the client and the server for all aliases. When you post to a proxied session, it is sent to the right client and reposted there.

BUGS

Probably, its not fully tested. So use this at your own risk of life and data.

FEATURES

You can't post globs

You can't use session ids

You must check $POE::TIKC::connected == 1 before posting events until I can fix this by queueing the posts until a connection is made

You must make sure Storable is the same version on all machines using TIKC

Using $_[SENDER] for anything would be bad

Using call() instead of post will not return usefull info from the remote kernel
