NAME
       deleg_method - Creation of comm delegates (snit methods)

SYNOPSIS
       package require Tcl  8.3

       package require snit  ?1.1?

       package require interp::delegate::method  ?0.2?

       ::interp::delegate::method ?-async? name arguments comm id

DESCRIPTION
       This  package  provides  a  single  command  for  use  within  snit  type definition (i.e. actually a
       snit::macro) for the convenient creation of methods which delegate the actual work to a remote  loca-tion location
       tion via a "channel" created by the package comm.

API
       ::interp::delegate::method ?-async? name arguments comm id
              This  commands  creates  a  method which is named by name. All invokations of this method will
              delegate the actual work to the remote location identified by the comm channel  comm  and  the
              endpoint id.

              The  name of the remote method invoked by the delegator is identical to the name of the method
              itself.

              Normally the generated method marshalls the arguments, and returns the result from the  remote
              method as its own result. If however the option -async was specified then the generated method
              will not wait for a result and return immediately.
