pipe wont work.. You'll need a absolute memory address, youll need to
re-calculate the offset...its like hacking off another program's
memory or device DMA  but you might still get a protection error is
the thread is running in protected mode

Try using C++/ACE library they use message space for that.. i think
theres also a JACE for allowing C++/ACE and J++/ACE interopt
(http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~doc/RandD/ACE/Java/) ;p im sorry i forgot
that book we were using for ACE and its been a while since i used that
library.

good luck.
