IMathLink
The created link.

Use this method if you want to establish a listen/connect link to a program other than a Wolfram Language kernel.

You can use standard MathLink/WSTP specifications for establishing a link, for example the -linkprotocol, -linkname, and -linkmode switches.

An example of a string argument would be:

C#

string mlArgs = "-linkmode listen -linkname foo";
IMathLink ml = MathLinkFactory.CreateMathlLink(mlArgs);

Most programmers will want to use the CreateKernelLink method instead.

If the opening of the link fails.
