Re: [Jython-users] IPC

[Kevin B. <kb...@ca...>]

You have several options, ranging in rough order of difficulty:

- Python-specific RPC technology (PYRO http://pyro.sourceforge.net/ or 
DOPY http://www.users.cloud9.net/~proteus/dopy/)
    I actually haven't used either, as I've needed cross language 
interoperability, but I probably would use one of them if I were doing 
all-Python RPC

- Python-based CORBA solution (Fnorb or omniorb and possibly Java's 
CORBA interfaces)

- XML-based RPC technology (xmlrpc/soap) (haven't done much with these)

- custom sockets (probably using pickles, maybe SimpleTCPServer or 
BaseHTTPServer)

- some other communication mechanism you dream up - write to a file, 
database, etc.

In spite of what RPC vendors would have you think, none of this is very 
difficult, and unless you
have significant stability or performance requirements, all should be 
quite suitable.  I imagine that
if PYRO or DOPY works for you, they will be significantly easier than 
any of the others, but all
the others are pretty similar in difficulty.

IMO, YMMV, etc.
