## rpc-query

Arguments: (self rpc-port) (m rpc-message) &rest modifiers

This method is used with the message handle returned by rpc-invoke to query the state of a remote call. The value is a keyword that describes the state of the message. The possible keywords are:

### While a call is in progress:

- `:rms-begin-invoke`: a call has been initiated.
- `:rms-arguments`: the arguments to the call are being transmitted.
- `:rms-invoke-sent`: the entire call has been transmitted.
- `:rms-invoke-confirmed`: the call has been acknowledged by the remote host. This state appears only if the confirm argument of the port is non-`nil`.
- `:rms-receiving-results`: the results are arriving.
- `:rms-result-received`: all the results have arrived. This state appears only if the confirm argument of the port is non-`nil`.

### While a call is completed:

- `:rms-done`: the results have been confirmed and the call has completed successfully.
- `:rms-error-received`: the call is completed, but the remote host is transmitting error information. This state appears only if the confirm argument of the port is non-`nil`.
- `:rms-error`: the call is completed, but the remote host signaled an error.
- `:rms-throw`: the call was cut short by a throw in the remote host.
