IPCServer & IPCClient (based on NamedPipes): provides you easy communication between two or more unrelated processes. Communication is in both ways (full duplex) (Client->Server, Server->Clients). IPCServer can be integrated in Windows applications or Windows services and can be accessed from both of them and from ASP.NET. SharedMemory data-types (based on FileMapping, Mutexes and Semaphores): collection of basic data-types that can be shared between unrelated processes. Basic datatypes: SharedString, SharedInteger, and SharedObject.
SharedObject can write/read to/from memory block any object that can be serialized. MemoryObject is base class from witch all basic data-types are inherited. This gives you possibility to extend shared data-types with writing your own data-type. SharedEvent (based on NamedEvents): signal for unrelated processes. Raise and catch SharedEvent from any application type.
