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.
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.
16 Serializing all the complex objects is done with Boost serialization.
17 The complete manual is generated by doxygen in the doc directory.
22 * Fixed calls to virtual functions in constructors/destructors
23 * Improvements for data transfers larger than 2 GB
24 * Fixed uninitialized variables causing random transfer problems
