Hi all, Supposing you have two separate processes running on the same box, what approach would you suggest to communicate between those two processes.
Let me list the ones I know of: * Sockets Advantage: Supported per se in nearly every programming language without even the need to install additional packages Disadvantage: Lot's of code to write, and it's kind of silly to communicate via TCP/IP if the processes run on the same machine. * Webservices Advantage: Relatively easy to use, can work across different languages Disadvantage: Even more overhead on the TCP/IP side that simple sockets, as really bulky SOAP messages need to be passed around. * CORBA -- similar to webservices but more complicated to code. * Shared memory I don't know much about this subject. Supposing both processes are written in Python, is there any other way to achieve this? To me, shared memory sound the most suited approach. But as said, I am still fuzzy in this area. Where can I find more information on this subject? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
