In case you are not aware, it is possible to launch jqt through command line with command line parameters that start functions. If you are doing this for websockets, then you can use sockets or websockets for ongoing inter-process communications. Perhaps there is a way to return something to the command line too on exit, but odds are you want ongoing communications rather than a blocking process that returns something.
jqt takes in the neighbourhood of 10MB of memory. ----- Original Message ----- From: Devon McCormick <[email protected]> To: J-programming forum <[email protected]> Cc: Sent: Wednesday, July 9, 2014 9:13:33 AM Subject: Re: [Jprogramming] Qt under jconsole?
