I have an OS X mach-o application and a Classic code resource that
need low latency communications. I have accomplished this by sending
UDP messages between the two. The problem is that my application
doesn't seem to work when there isn't an Ethernet cable plugged in.
Is there a way to use networking to pass messages between a X and
Classic, even if there is no Ethernet port (or AirPort) active?
Now, on OS X, if I ping 127.0.0.1 it always works, even without an
active TCP/IP port (i.e., no Ethernet cable plugged in). So I suspect
that Classic is the culprit here. Of course, that means that I'm
using Open Transport...
What about multicasting? Would that help?
I may have to resort to Apple Events, but the latency was, realtively
speaking, high.
Best Wishes,
Mark
