=head1 NAME

VXI11::Client - Perl extension for interfacing with VXI-11 networked instruments

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use VXI11::Client;

  vxi_startinterruptserver();

  my $instr = vxi_open("192.168.0.62", 0);

  $instr->vxi_lock(0);
  $instr->vxi_write("*idn?");
  my ($bytes, $buff, $reason) = $instr->vxi_read();
  print "got " . $bytes . ";" . $buff . " reason " . $reason ."\n";

  my ($error, $statusbyte) = $instr->vxi_readstatusbyte(0);
  printf "status byte is " . $statusbyte . "\n";

  $instr->vxi_create_intr_chan();
  $instr->vxi_enable_srq("myhandle");
  vxi_wait_for_interrupt();
  $instr->vxi_disable_srq();
  $instr->vxi_destroy_intr_chan();
  $instr->vxi_abort();
  $instr->vxi_clear(0);
  $instr->vxi_trigger(0);
  $instr->vxi_local(0);
  $instr->vxi_remote(0);
  $instr->vxi_unlock();

  $instr->vxi_close();

  vxi_stopinterruptserver();


=head1 DESCRIPTION

A client for VXI-11 networked instruments. To start talking to an instrument
call open with the host you want to connect to (ip or hostname) and whether
you want to lock it right away. You can then call the object methods to 
do stuff. For interrupts to work you must call vxi_startinterruptserver before
enabling interrupts. You only need to do this once even if you have multiple
instruments. VXI-11 has mixed client and server roles (with interrupts the client
becomes the server). Starting the interrupt server creates an RPC server on the 
client that the instruments can connect to.

Return codes work like this;
1   - is a success
0   - means the request failed locally, the state inside the client is
incorrect, i.e. calling to enable interrupts before creating the channel
or that the server couldn't be contacted
< 0 - Any negative value is the negated VXI-11 error code from the server

The only exceptions to this are the read and write methods
0   - Error as above or zero bytes read/written
> 0 - Number of bytes read/written
