Hi all
I want some advice on Inter Process Communication (IPC). I have one
dynamic library(dylib) and one application(app). Actually I am porting
something from Windows so I will write about windows code.
In Application, I create one event object (eventName). Now, I create
one thread and call waitForSingleObject and now it is waiting for
someone to set the event and the it will come out. In DLL I create
one event object of same name (eventName). Now, whenever I need, set
the event in DLL then in application that thread comes out of wait and
executes the code and again start waiting.
I want to implement similar kind of thing in Mac also. I want to
create one event with same name in both process and application should
notified whenever dylib set the event.
I do not know that I have to do with event or something else. DLL is
standard C++ dynamic library and application is standard C++ tool
(command line utility).
Please suggest me to solve this issue.
Thanks and regards
rksinghal
You can probably use darwin notifications:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Conceptual/MacOSXNotifcationOv/DarwinNotificationConcepts/chapter_4_section_1.html
Or if you prefere an higher level concept, have a look at
CoreFoundation notification (using distributed notification center).
(see the link above for the different X notifications API)
