As long as a custom interface with sockets is on the table, I'm very happy
using Catalyst SocketTools which support Clarion: www.catalyst.com.  I agree
that HTTP is a good generic interface, though that may depend on which side
is client or server.  Some of our components are based on using MV as an
HTTP client to an HTTP Server (all written by myself using Catalyst toolsand
Pick BASIC) where the server is embedded in other application-oriented
components to do "real work".  It may work with Clarion code, I haven't
checked yet.  This technology will be offered to U2 sites soon.  Inquiries
welcome.
