ncalrpc

endpoint( ncalrpc:[port-name] )

port-name

A character string that specifies the communication port (an application, a service, or an instance of a service) that a client uses to make interprocess calls to a server. The string can contain up to 250 characters and should not contain any backslash (\) characters. The computer name must not be used with the ncalrpc keyword.

Example

[ uuid(12345678-4000-2006-0000-20000000001a),

version(1.1),

endpoint("ncalrpc:[myapplicationname]")

]

Remarks

The ncalrpc keyword identifies local interprocess communication as the protocol family for the endpoint. This keyword is one of the valid protocol family names that must be used with the endpoint attribute.

The syntax of the local interprocess-communication port string, like all port strings, is defined by the transport implementation and is independent of the IDL specification. The MIDL compiler performs limited syntax checking but does not guarantee that the endpoint specification is correct. Some classes of errors may be reported at run time rather than during compilation.
