4. _D_i_f_f_e_r_e_n_c_e_s__f_r_o_m__S_u_n_S_o_f_t__T_o_o_l_T_a_l_k
4.1 _N_o_t__S_u_p_p_o_r_t_e_d__i_n__S_i_l_i_c_o_n__G_r_a_p_h_i_c_s__T_o_o_l_T_a_l_k
+o The Classing Engine is a SunSoft database used for
typing information (for example, given a file, what
type is it, what icon is used for this type?). This is
used in Sun OpenWindows, and is not part of ToolTalk.
Some of the ToolTalk commands have options that use the
Classing Engine in the SunSoft implementation. The
Classing Engine options are not supported in the
Silicon Graphics (SGI) implementation.
+o The SunSoft implementation of ToolTalk supports a _d_e_s
authentication option and uses secure RPC. This is not
supported in the SGI ToolTalk implementation.
+o The SunSoft implementation of ToolTalk supports
_i_n_t_e_r_n_a_t_i_o_n_a_l_i_z_a_t_i_o_n of error/warning messages. This is
not supported in the SGI ToolTalk implementation. The
error message strings can be found in Appendix C of the
_T_o_o_l_T_a_l_k _P_r_o_g_r_a_m_m_e_r'_s _G_u_i_d_e (available as part of the
ToolTalk Development option).
4.2 _C_h_a_n_g_e_s__i_n__S_G_I__T_o_o_l_T_a_l_k
+o The SunSoft implementation of ToolTalk has a program
named _t_t_c_p for copying files containing ToolTalk
objects. In SGI's implementation, _t_t_c_p is a test
program for TCP and UDP performance. The SunSoft
ToolTalk _t_t_c_p command has been renamed _t_t_c_o_p_y in SGI
ToolTalk.
4.3 _A_d_d_i_t_i_o_n_a_l__F_u_n_c_t_i_o_n_a_l_i_t_y__o_f__S_G_I__T_o_o_l_T_a_l_k
By default, a ToolTalk client process connects to a default
ToolTalk message server (ttsession). Silicon Graphics has
modified the default behavior to include the concept of the
CASEVision/ClearCase _v_i_e_w. By default, if ToolTalk clients
are running in a CASEVision/ClearCase _v_i_e_w, the ttsession
will be started in the _v_i_e_w and dedicated only to processes
in the _v_i_e_w. This overrides the SunSoft ToolTalk default
mechanism. If the ToolTalk client is not running in a
CASEVision/ClearCase _v_i_e_w, it connects to the ttsession in
the same manner as in the SunSoft ToolTalk implementation.
(See CASEVision/ClearCase for details on what it means to be
in a _v_i_e_w).
