4 | libt2n (talk2neighbor) is a C++ IPC (inter process communication) library | |
5 | with an additional code generator (libt2n-codegen). | |

7 | Before inventing our own IPC library, we checked a lot of other IPC frameworks |
8 | like CORBA, D-BUS and ICE. But they weren't easy to use and did not allow | |
9 | passing complex C++ objects like vectors, maps and your own classes. | |
10 | ||
11 | Communication between client and server is currently done using | |
12 | Unix domain sockets (named pipes) or TCP. But the library is designed | |
13 | transport-independent, so it can be expanded to | |
14 | shared memory or other mechanisms. | |
15 | ||
16 | Serializing all the complex objects is done with Boost serialization. | |
17 | The complete manual is generated by doxygen in the doc directory. | |
