Hi,

This looks like it's the way to get/put data from/to applications, but:

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?


Given two applications, AppA and AppB. AppB needs to send a message to AppA so it executes a "write to process' command. How does AppA know that a message has been sent? On the Mac, the "appleEvent" will be sent to AppA, but on Windows, AppA would have to be executing a "read from process" command to be able to get the data. Also if I have a number of Applications (AppC, AppD, AppE) that want to communicate with AppA then I'd have to be executing 4 "read from process" command simultaneously, how could this be implemented?

Thanks a lot
All the Best
Dave

Hi Dave,

Hi All,

I've been working on a way of getting two RunRev Standalone's to communicate with each other.
Any ideas or suggestions gratefully appreciated.


Well, I've done almost this years ago...

open socket, read/write from socket...
or
open process, read/write from process...

All this is in the Doc.

HTH,
Regards,
Thierry
