SynopsisLaunches a new ChIPS server and connects the client to it. Syntaxcreate_server([load_prefs]); Description
The create_server command may be used by a client which is currently not connected to a server. The optional load_prefs parameter indicates whether the server should load the user's preferences file (if not given the preference file is not loaded). The command creates a new server and attaches the client to the server. After the server is created, the get_server_id command ("ahelp sl.chips get_server_id") will return the id of the new server. If the client is already connected to a server when a create_server command is invoked, the request will fail and an error message is returned. Examplechips> get_server_id; ChipsServer_6979_1 chips> disconnect; chips> create_server_id(1); chips> get_server_id; ChipsServer_6979_2 The client is disconnected from the server with id "ChipsServer_6979_1". A new chips server is then created, which loads the user's $HOME/.chips.rc file and attaches the client to the server. The final call to get_server_id returns the id of the new chips server ("ChipsServer_6979_2"). BugsSee the bugs pages on the ChIPS website for an up-to-date listing of known bugs. See Also
