ttsession

Communicates with other ttsessions on the network to deliver messages.

rpc.ttdbserverd

Stores and manages ToolTalk object specs and information on files referenced in ToolTalk messages.

ttcp ttmv ttrm ttrmdir tttar

These commands are standard operating system shell commands that inform the ToolTalk service when files that contain ToolTalk objects or files that are the subject of ToolTalk messages are copied, moved, or removed.

ttdbck

A database check and recovery tool for the ToolTalk databases.

tt_type_comp

This is a compiler for ptypes and otypes. It compiles the ptype and otype files and automatically installs them in the ToolTalk Types database.

ttce2xdr

Converts ToolTalk type data from the Classing Engine database format to the XDR-database format.

ttsnoop

This is a Motif application that enables you to register ToolTalk patterns and/or send ToolTalk messages, and to generally observe ToolTalk message traffic. It is useful both for debugging existing applications and as a tutor in understanding how different parts of a pattern filter incoming messages.

tttrace

tttrace is analogous to truss(1). It is an application that can be used in two ways. It enables you to trace either the message-passing and pattern-matching occurring in a given ttsession, or it can be used to provide a per-program trace of all calls into the ToolTalk API.

libtt.so.2

This is the application programming interface (API) library.

tttk.h and tt_c.h (located in /usr/dt/include/Tt)

Header files that contain the ToolTalk functions used by applications to send and receive messages.

/usr/openwin/man/man1

ToolTalk man pages for the user commands such as ttsession, ttdbck, tt_type_comp, and so on.

/usr/openwin/man/man1m

ToolTalk man pages for the ToolTalk administrative commands suc such as rpc.ttdbserverd, ttdbck, and so on.

/usr/openwin/man/man3

ToolTalk man pages for the ToolTalk API calls.

/usr/openwin/man/man4

ToolTalk man pages for the ToolTalk message sets, and for configuration files used for by ttsession(1) and rpc.ttdbserverd(1m)

/usr/openwin/man/man5

ToolTalk man pages for the ToolTalk include files.

ttsample, edit_demo, and Makefile (located in /usr/openwin/share/src/tooltalk/demo)

Source code for simple ToolTalk demo programs.

TTSESSION_CMD

Overrides the standard options specified when tools automatically start ttsession. If this variable is set, all ToolTalk clients use this command to automatically start their X sessions.

TT_ARG_TRACE_WIDTH

Defines the number of characters of argument and context values to print when in trace mode. The default is to print the first 40 characters.

TT_FILE

ttsession places a pathname in this variable when a tool is invoked by a message scoped to the defined file.

TT_HOSTNAME_MAP

Points to a map file. The defined map file is read into the ToolTalk client for redirecting host machines.

TT_PARTITION_MAP

Points to a map file. The defined map file is read into the ToolTalk client for redirecting file partitions.

TT_SESSION

ttsession communicates its session identifier to the tools that it starts. If this variable is set, the ToolTalk client library uses its value as the default session identifier. The string stored in this variable can be passed to tt_default_session_set.

TT_TOKEN

Notifies the ToolTalk client library that it has been started by ttsession; the client can then confirm to ttsession that the start was successful.

TT_TRACE_SCRIPT

Tells libtt to turn on client-side tracing as specified in the trace script for tttrace(1).

TTPATH

Tells the ToolTalk service where the ToolTalk Types databases used by tt_type_comp(1) and rpc.ttdbserverd(1M) reside.

CEPATH

Tells the Classing Engine where the ToolTalk Types databases reside.

DISPLAY

Causes ttsession to communicate its session identifier to the tools that it starts if the TT_SESSION variable is not set.

If the DISPLAY variable is set, the ToolTalk client library uses its value as the default session identifier. This variable is typically set when ttsession is auto-started while running under OpenWindows.

NOTE: Under the Solaris operating environment, this variable may not be passed across to some accounts. That is, if you are logged on the console as User A and switch-user to User B, ttsession may not autostart when you attempt to run a ToolTalk program that normally autostarts ttsession. To avoid this problem, either manually set the this variable or include it in your .login file.

DTMOUNTPOINT

If set, the value of this environment variable will be used in place of /net in pathnames constructed to answer tt_host_netfile_file()(3) queries, by rpc.ttdbserverd(1M).
