Hi all,
In the context of a client/server model in nanox, I was wondering what
is the benefit of using sockets (with an IP stack) for communications
between the client and server if the client AND the server runs on the
same CPU/machine ?
I was thinking about using the SysV IPC message queues and shared memory
mechanisms between 2 threads (one for client, one for server). Do you
think it would work ?
Do you think integrating that communication mechanism in nanox would be
difficult/long/annoying ? (I know that Morten already contributed shared
mem support)
My newbee question of the week .... :-)
