NAME

tcell  licensing module (for arbitrary non PUPS codes)

 

SYNOPSIS

tcell [ -pipe command pipeline ] | [ -tee_file <tee_file_name> ][ -nice cardinal ][ -argf argument_file ][ -help ][ -usage ][ -growth_protection retries ][ -slots ][ -slotinfo ] >& <log file>

 

DESCRIPTION

tcell(1) is an application which runs the PUPS securicor security module on behalf of its parent process. If licensing conditions are not met tcell(1) terminates the parent process. If licensing conditions are met, control is passed back to the parent process.

 

OPTIONS


  -help invokes the on-line context help system. This "man" page is displayed. The process then exits.

-growth_protection retrys causes the system to retry an sbrk(2) call up to retrys times. This option permits the program to wait until the core that it requires is available rather than simply exiting if sbrk(2) fails.

-argf argument_file tells the filter to take its command line arguments from the specified argument_file. The data format of the argument file is:

# ... optional comment line ... -argflag [1]
argument_parameter [1,1]
argument_parameter [1,2]

argument_parameter [1,n]

# ... optional comment line ...
-argflag [2]
argument_parameter [1,1]
argument_parameter [1,2]

argument_parameter [1,n]

  -nice cardinal determimes the niceness at which the filter is scheduled. In keeping with all UNIX user processes, nice must be a cardinal between 0 and 20. The default niceness for xtee(1) is 4.

-usage displays program shortform usage.

-version displays program version number.

-slots displays the pups(3) libraries used in application in short form.

-slotinfo displays the pups(3) libraries used in application in long form giving version, source language, programmer and copyright.
