[Qt-interest] Distributed and adaptive components support in Qt

[Gregory Descamps]

Hello,

I may be wrong, but I think that the Service Framework (inside Qt 
Mobility) can help.
I was told that communication between processes is planned for next 
year...

Hi Sandro,

I don't remember having seen such kind of features as part of Qt itself.
But I've seen some kind of facilities inside of the Qxt library (see 
http://doc.libqxt.org/0.5.0/classQxtRPCService.html and 
http://doc.libqxt.org/0.5.0/classQxtRPCPeer.html).

Otherwises, I think that you should have a look on other languages that 
includes Qt bindings and a native remote method invocation feature, like 
Ruby 
(using the DRb framework).
You can have an introduction to it here : 
http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/html/ospace.html#UG
And a pragmatic introduction 
there :http://segment7.net/projects/ruby/drb/introduction.html
