XPAUsers - Distinguishing Users
SYNOPSIS
XPA normally distinguishes between users on a given host, but it is possible to send data to access points belonging to other users.
DESCRIPTION
A single XPA name service typically serves all users on a given machine. Two users can register the same XPA access points on the same
machine without conflict, because the user's username is registered with each access point and, by default, programs such as xpaget and
xpaset only process access points of the appropriate user. For example:
XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:1262 eric
XPA xpa2 gs 838e2f67:1266 eric
XPA xpa1 gs 838e2f67:2523 john
XPA xpa2 gs 838e2f67:2527 john
Here the users "eric" and "john" both have registered the access points xpa1 and xpa2. When either "john" or "eric" retrieves information
from xpa1, they will process only the access point registered in their user name.
If you want to access another user's XPA access points on a single machine, use the -u [user] option on xpaset, xpaget, etc. For example,
if eric executes:
xpaget -u john xpa1
he will access John's xpa1 access point.Use "*" to access all users on a given machine:
xpaget -u "*" xpa1
Note that the XPA Environment Variable XPA_NSUSERS can be used to specify the default list of users to process:
setenv XPA_NSUSERS "eric,john"
will cause access points from both "eric" and "john" to be processed by default.

XPAChanges - Changes For Users from XPA 1.0 and 2.0
SYNOPSIS
This document describes changes that will affect users who migrate from XPA 1.0 to XPA 2.0.
DESCRIPTION
There have been a few changes that affect users who upgrade XPA from version 1.0 to version 2.0. These changes are detailed below.
o XPA commands no longer have a resolver routine (this is open to negotiations, but we decided the idea was dumb). For the SAOtng pro-
gram, this means that you must explicitly specify the access point, i.e.,:
cat foo.fits | xpaset SAOtng fits
instead of:
cat foo.fits | xpaset SAOtng
o By default, xpaset, xpaget, etc. now wait for the server callback to complete; i.e., the old -W is implied (and the switch is
ignored). This allows support for better error handling. If you want xpaset, etc. to return before the callback is complete, use -n
switch:
echo "file foo.fits" | xpaset -n SAOtng
o The old -w switch in xpaset and xpaget is no longer necessary (and is ignored), since you can have more than one process communicating
with an xpa access point at one time.
o The new -p switch on xpaset means you need not read from stdout:
xpaset -p SAOtng colormap I8
will send the paramlist to the SAOtng callback without reading from stdin.
