This sample program demonstrates how to supply
multiple implementations of the remote procedure
specified in the interface.  It also demonstrates
how the client selects among the implementations
by providing a client object uuid.

The server calls RpcObjectSetType to associate a
client object uuid with the object uuid in the
Object Registry Table. The server initializes a
manager entry point vector (manager epv) and
then calls RpcRegisterIf to associate the interface
uuid and the object uuid with the manager epv in the
Interface Registry Table.

When the client makes a remote procedure call,
the client object uuid is mapped to the object uuid
in the Object Registry Table.  The resulting
object uuid and the interface uuid are mapped to
a manager entry point vector in the Interface
Registry Table.

By default, in this example, the server registers
two implementations of the "hello, world" function
HelloProc and HelloProc2.  The HelloProc2
implementation is associated with the object uuid
"11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111". When
the client makes a procedure call with a null
uuid, the client's request is mapped to the
original HelloProc.  When the client makes a
procedure call with the client object uuid
"11111111-1111-1111-1111-11111111111", the
client's request is mapped to HelloProc2 (which
prints the string in reverse).

-------------------------------------------
BUILDING CLIENT AND SERVER APPLICATIONS FOR
MICROSOFT CHICAGO:
-------------------------------------------

Build the sample distributed application:
  nmake cleanall
  nmake

This builds the executable programs cluuidc.exe
(client) and cluuids.exe (server).

------------------------------------------
RUNNING THE CLIENT AND SERVER APPLICATIONS
------------------------------------------

On the server, enter

  cluuids

On the client, enter

  net start workstation
  cluuidc

To call the second implementation of the function,
on the client, enter
  cluuidc -u "11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111"

Note:  The client and server applications can run on
the same Microsoft Chicago computer when you use different screen
groups.


Several command line switches are available to change
settings for this program. For a listing of the switches
available from the client program, enter

  cluuidc -?

For a listing of switches available from the server 
program, enter

  cluuids -?
