This seems harder than I initially thought. I thought I would call a couple functions and have a pointer to my array of 32bit floats. vitamin wrote: > > Then don't use shared memory for IPC. Use the most simplistic (and most idiot-proof) IPC - nameless/named pipes. If you want to get more sophisticated - use sockets or pipes. Unfortunately the windows application that I need to access interfaces via shared memory and not through sockets or pipes. I have no control over that application. I wish I could change the applications, I am stuck with it and how it is implemented. vitamin wrote: > > Shared memory is a huge PITA, especially mixing win32, Wine & POSIX implementations of it. Since I am stuck, which of the following is going to be a bigger PITA. -Figure this whole intermixing shared memory thing.(which seems like the way it should be done) -Or write another windows app to be the middle man. Pipes or Sockets to Shared Memory type deal.
