Cross platform IPC [closed]

Answer 1

If you're willing to try something a little different, there's the ICE platform from ZeroC. It's open source, and is supported on pretty much every OS you can think of, as well as having language support for C++, C#, Java, Ruby, Python and PHP. Finally, it's very easy to drive (the language mappings are tailored to fit naturally into each language). It's also fast and efficient. There's even a cut-down version for devices.

Answer 2

It doesn't get more simple than using pipes, which are supported on every OS I know of, and can be accessed in pretty much every language.

Answer 3

TCP sockets to localhost FTW.

Answer 4

Xojo has built-in cross-platform IPC support with its IPCSocket class. Although you obviously couldn't "implement" it in other languages, you could use it in a Xojo console app and call it from other languages making this option perhaps very simple for you.
