LinkConnect
 Usage
• LinkConnect["name"] connects to a MathLink link created by another program.
Notes
• LinkConnect by default operates with internet TCP links, with names of the form port@host. Ports are typically specified by numbers. • LinkConnect can connect to a port on a remote computer system. • On some computer systems, LinkConnect[ ] will bring up a port browser. • You can use LinkConnect with LinkCreate to set up peer-to-peer communication between two Mathematica processes. • LinkConnect can be used to connect to a link created by calling LinkCreate in another Mathematica process. • LinkConnect can be used to connect to an external program that has created a MathLink link by calling the appropriate MathLink library functions. • External programs built from MathLink templates using mcc and mprep can typically create MathLink links whenever they are given -linkcreate command-line arguments. • The option LinkProtocol specifies the underlying data transport protocol that LinkConnect should use. • LinkConnect internally calls a function analogous to the MLOpenArgv() function in the MathLink library. • Even though no program may yet be connected to the other end of the MathLink link, the function LinkConnect will return immediately and will not block. • New in Version 3.
