gk::conference

Miscellaneous conference facilities

Synopsis

gk::conference originator
gk::conference run

Description

The gk::conference command provides various utilities needed to support GroupKit conference applications (as opposed to session managers, the registrar, or other GroupKit processes).

The main routine you will use is "gk::conference originator", which will return "1" if the current process first initiated the conference, and "0" otherwise. You can use this for example so that only the conference originator will preload various data structures.

The other routines is used internally by other parts of GroupKit. The "gk::conference run" command is invoked when the conference process is first created (see confStarter.tcl) to start the conference running.
