Detailed Description

Process communication using Sockets.

This is a concrete implementation of vtkMultiProcessController. It supports one-to-one communication using sockets. Note that process 0 will always correspond to self and process 1 to the remote process. This class is best used with ports.

Bug:

Note that because process 0 will always correspond to self, this class breaks assumptions usually implied when using ad-hoc polymorphism. That is, the vtkSocketController will behave differently than other subclasses of vtkMultiProcessController. If you upcast vtkSocketController to vtkMultiProcessController and send it to a method that does not know that the object is actually a vtkSocketController, the object may not behave as intended. For example, if that oblivious class chose to identify a "root" based on the local process id, then both sides of the controller will think they are the root (and that will probably lead to deadlock). If you plan to upcast to vtkMultiProcessController, you should probably use the CreateCompliantController instead.

FOOLISH MORTALS! Thou hast forsaken the sacred laws of ad-hoc polymorphism when thou broke a critical assumption of the superclass (namely, each process has thine own id).

The time frame to fix thy error has passed. Too much code has come to rely on this abhorrent behavior. Instead, we offer this gift: a method for creating an equivalent communicator with correct process id semantics. The calling code is responsible for deleting this controller.
