register Port???

[Nico Weling]

Hi,

is it possible to register an port?


Eshell V4.9.1  (abort with ^G)

(testnode@REDACTED)1> TonePid = open_port({spawn, tone}, [{packet, 2}]).
#Port<0.13>

(testnode@REDACTED)2> register(tone_port,TonePid).

=ERROR REPORT==== 20-Sep-2001::16:23:33 ===
Error in process <0.35.0> on node 'testnode@REDACTED' with exit value: {badarg,[{erlang,register,[tone_port,<0,13>]},{erl_eval,expr,3},{erl_eval,exprs,4},{shell,eval_loop,2}]}
** exited: {badarg,[{erlang,register,[tone_port,#Port<0.13>]},
                    {erl_eval,expr,3},
                    {erl_eval,exprs,4},
                    {shell,eval_loop,2}]} **


Thanks in advance,

Nico.
