適用范圍：This International Standard specifies a model for procedure calls, and a reference syntax for map-ping to and from the model. This syntax is referred to as the Interface Definition Notation. The model defined in this International Standard includes such features as procedure invocation, pa-rameter passing, completion status, and environmental issues relating to non-local references and state. This International Standard does not specify: · the method by which the procedure call initiated by the client mode processor is communi-cated to the server mode language processor; · the minimum requirements of a data processing system that is capable of supporting an implementation of a language processor to support LIPC; · the mechanism by which programs written to support LIPC are transformed for use by a data processing system; · the representation of a parameter. NOTE - Originally it was the intention to align the definitions and concepts of this International Standard with those of the RPC standard (ISO/IEC 11578). Unfortunately, in a late stage of the development process of the RPC standard it was decided to use for that standard a completely different approach. Hence the intended alignment did not materialize. Annex D gives an overview of the differences between the concepts as defined by this Interna-tional Standard and the RPC standard.
