A client can connect directly to a standalone Open Server application.
The client submits requests to the server using:
Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs), which allow you to execute registered procedures on an Open Server application. Registered procedures are defined pieces of Open Server code stored by the Open Server application. They can be user-defined or system-defined procedures.
A cursor command.
Any other kind of client command.
The Open Server application programmer supplies code to process client commands.
The standalone Open Server application makes no external requests to respond to a client request.
