There are plenty of different IPC mechanisms available in multiprocessing. > I was looking for semaphores and shared memory, but it is not in the > standard lib. Take a look at: - multiprocessing.Array and multiprocessing.Value - mmap.mmap with 0 or -1 as the first argument (Windows and Linux, respectively) - pywin32 on Windows (not standard lib) > I was also thinking about unix domain sockets, but it is > not available under windows. Unix domain sockets are called 'named pipes' under Windows.
