unix_ipc(6F)                     DG/UX 5.4.2                    unix_ipc(6F)


NAME
       unixipc - piping communications within a host

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include sys/un.h

DESCRIPTION
       The unixipc protocol is used for interprocess communications within
       a single host.  It supports stream and datagram interfaces.

   Addressing
       Endpoints can be named by entries in the file system:

       struct sockaddrun {
               short sunfamily;    /* AFUNIX */
               char sunpath[SOCKADDRUNMAXLEN];  /* pathname */
       };

SEE ALSO
       bind(2), pipe(2).

NOTE
       This implementation uses names in the file system; this is subject to
       change.  See NOTES in bind(2).
