[Boost-users] Fast IPC between Linux and Windows on the same host

Hi, what is the fastest cross-platform IPC mechanism between Linux and Windows on the same physical host? Additional info: Host OS is Linux (Debian), Windows XP is hosted in VirtualBox. Of course TCP/IP sockets is a possibility, but I need something much faster. My preference would be to use shared memory, but is it possible in such an heterogene environment? And: can Boost.Interprocess be used for this scenario? Thx -- U.Mutlu DACOS Notdienstanlagen GmbH, Germany
