Hi!

Does anyone have any more extensive examples of
using the RpcService, RpcReader, RpcWriter
classes than VWork.c and VMouse.c (3.1beta).

I'm particulary interested in serving some 
preexisting (non-InterViews) RPC clients. I
have been successful in getting them to register
with my InterViews server but, unfortunately,
they expect a reply from the remote procedure
call (svc_sendreply()).  This is something the
RpcReader class does not do.  I was unsuccessful
in using the raw Dispatcher class with traditional
rpc svc calls (in C++ wrappers) because something
in the InterViews dispatcher fouls up the svc file
descriptors.

Also, does anybody have any good ideas for 
decoding XDR packets off of an iostreamb?  :-)

Any ideas, comments, code would be greatly
appreciated.  I will summarize to the group
if there's interest.
