[okl4-developer] Asynchronous message

Hi Charles,

There are certainly ways to set up threads in OKL4 2.1.1 such that IPC  
calls will only succeed in one direction, and calls to the other  
direction will either fail or result in a nop (this applies to both  
synchronous and asynchronous IPC).  In (near) future versions of OKL4,  
it will be possible to prevent IPC calls from being made in the first  
place, on a directional basis.

I'm afraid I'm not sure what amount of support IDL4 provides for  
ensuring one-way IPC only.  But as always, writing the interface code  
manually will give you finest control over how the interface is  
implemented.

Hope this helps,
Nelson.
