In Research Systems Inc. Software vision volume 5, number 1 is written: Callable IDL You can link IDL to your C or FORTAN applications as a compute/display library... is delivered via ... UNIX sharable object libraries. Who knows in which IDL 4 manual this is documented? To my opinion this has nothing to do with using IDL as an RPC server. Thanks for your possible help.
I think there are some Tricks for this callble IDL 1. You can not call a IDL subroutine from you program at VMS/AXP version and Window Version, but you can call your C or Fortran Program fro IDL, this is ONE WAY callable. 2. You can only run IDL server on UNIX system, may be this server allow you call idl subroutine for you C or Fortran program ?
