A slew of questions regarding Inter Process Communication (IPC) :
+ To begin with, is any sort of IPC possible in java ?
+ Would it be possible for an application/applet to communicate with
another application/applet on the same host using sockets ?
+ While trying InetAddress.getlocalHostName() on Windows 95 the exception
UnknownHostException is thrown. I was doing this in order to open
a socket on the local host.
+ Could System Properties be used in any way for IPC
+ It is possible to have something like named pipes ( as in Unix) in Java
which would not write to the file system , but could be used for
commucation.
Thanks
Prasad
PS : even if the issue of IPC is a no starter I would at least like to
know the answers to the above.
