Bob,
Officially, the minimum you should work with is Studio, which (as the web
page states): "permit running the IDE on a single platform for editing, but
builds for every platform we support". (Cost: $299)
Technically speaking, if you want to get the IDE on two platforms (say, Mac
and WIndows),
I have very liitle experience with RR and multi-processing. So, I would like to know
if is possible (as with c++, python and perl) to pass socket descriptors to child
processes? Is there a method to get the socket layer handle (this would allow a fork
style operation)?
