remote-process is an executable used to communicate with an instance of the parameter-framework through a TCP socket. It is only possible if the parameter-framework's configuration allows it (TuningAllowed="true" in the ParameterFrameworkConfiguration.xml) and if the port is also defined in the configuration (by the ServerPort attribute):
For instance, if your parameter-framework configuration starts with:
<ParameterFrameworkConfiguration SystemClassName="..." ServerPort="5000" TuningAllowed="true">
then, it listens on port 5000.
remote-process may also be used to communicate with test-platform (see test/test-platform/README.md) thanks to test-platform being a minimal parameter-framework client.
remote-process <host> <port> <command>
You can get all available commands with the help command.
You may also run a batch of commands by passing them on remote-process' standard input:
remote-process <host> <port> < file
You should not use this feature in an interactive mode, because the communication may timeout if you're typing your commands too slowly.
