The lower layer consists of some C routines to exchange a memory buffer between client and server (through shared memory or a socket) and the layout of this memory buffer. Actually, local communication could be implemented using pipes or whatever is best for your environment, as you have to port/implement both the client and server side anyway. > I'm thinking specifically of Python and Zope, where we'd like > to process multiple > simultaneous database requests (not serialized) on both > Windows and Linux. There exist Python modules in the standard SAP DB distribution (http://www.sapdb.org/framesets/sap_db_program.htm). Someone wrote the beginnings of a Database Adapter for Zope (http://www.zope.org/Members/jack-e/ZsapdbDA), it shouldn't be too hard to finish it. Unfortunately, my own dabblings in Zope weren't very successful yet.
