The choice of protocol depends on what you are communicating, but you
can probably use HTTP calls (unless you have a lot of binary data or
your communication is bidirectional).  HTTP is easy to test, trace,
and automate.  It has a small overhead for text data.

[maemo-developers] D-BUS question

2006-07-14 Thread Dionisis Petromanolakis



Hi all,
 
i want to make an application running on a normal 
desktop computer to communicate with maemo. Has anyone done something similar, 
are there any sources, tutorial available that could help me?
 
Can i do this using D-BUS or i have to do it 
through normal unix sockets? I ve read about D-BUS and everywhere says that it 
is created for applications placed in the same computer. All the sample code i 
can find is about communication on a single computer, but in the site of d-bus 
it says that it can also be used for application that are not in the same 
machine.
 
any ideas are more than welcome,
 
regards,
dionysis
