Windows IPC Options Support

[d.w.b]

The following interprocess communication (IPC) mechanisms are supported by Windows:* Clipboard* COM* Data Copy* DDE* File Mapping* Mailslots* Pipes* RPC* Windows SocketsIt would be nice to have one thread that lists all the Microsoft Windows' Inter-Process Communications options that are viable for implementation with LabVIEW.&nbsp; Searching the forum for "interprocess communication" finds various ones but others are not mentioned.&nbsp; NI document "How Do I Use LabVIEW to Communicate with Other Applications?" written in 2000 lists TCP, UDP, and ActiveX.&nbsp; Surely there are more...See:* ms-help://MS.VSCC.v90/MS.MSDNQTR.v90.en/ipc/base/interprocess_communications.htm* <a href="http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/B3959ED76D55A9E586256965004D8092?OpenDocument" target="_blank">http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/B3959ED76D55A9E586256965004D8092?OpenDocument</a>
