Hi Dave,

Why not use TCP that is cross-platform?

Hi All,

I've been working on a way of getting two RunRev Standalone's to communicate with each other. I've implemented a simple message passing mechanism on Macintosh using AppleEvents. This seems to work quite well. I now need something similar for Windows. I don't mind writing an External Command Handler in C/C++ to do this, and AFAIK I can do this using Win32 API Calls. However, on the Mac I have a handler for the "appleEvent" message, this gets called asynchronously whenever the other application send an AppleEvent. Can I achieve the same or similar under Windows? e.g. AppA gets a Message sent to it when there is a message ready to be read or some such? The only other way I can think of achieving this would be for the main application to periodically execute a "poll" handler which calls the External Command and read the message(s) from a queue?

Any ideas or suggestions gratefully appreciated.

All the Best
Dave

Best regards from Paris,
