NAME
       qbipcc.h - Client IPC API.


SYNOPSIS
       #include <qb/qbipcc.h>

DESCRIPTION
       Lifecycle of an IPC connection.

       An IPC connection is made to the server with qb_ipcc_connect(). This
       function connects to the server and requests channels be created for
       communication. To disconnect, the client either exits or executes the
       function qb_ipcc_disconnect().

       Synchronous communication

       The function qb_ipcc_sendv_recv() sends an iovector request and
       receives a response.

       Asynchronous requests from the client

       The function qb_ipcc_sendv() sends an iovector request. The function
       qb_ipcc_send() sends an message buffer request.

       Asynchronous events from the server

       The qb_ipcc_event_recv() function receives an out-of-band asynchronous
       message. The asynchronous messages are queued and can provide very high
       out-of-band performance. To determine when to call qb_ipcc_event_recv()
       the qb_ipcc_fd_get() call is used to obtain a file descriptor used in
       the poll() or select() system calls.
