What I'd like to do is to create two applications A B. Normally only app A
would be running however under certain conditions I would like App a to open
process B then send it some initialization data. Then, after process B has
done
its work, send data back to process A (or have process a Read from Process
B).
What do you use as a container in each app to send and receive the data to and
fro? Does anybody have an example they would be willing to share?
One way to do this (actually two ways) is AppleEvents on MacOS and DDE
(Dynamic Data Exchange) on Windows, which requires Tuviah Snyder's external
collection. I've done this on the Windows side only, just by following the
examples in the external stack. Let me know if this is of any use to you.
