Using Python to shared memory resources between Linux and Windows

Blubaugh, David A.

To All,

I was wondering if it was possible to utilize python to share a memory
resource between a linux and windows system?? It should be stated that
both the Linux (CENTOS 5) and windows are physically located on the same
computer. Is any of this possible?

Thanks,

David Blubaugh

No, not as that. You can use IPC-mechanisums such as XMLRPC, CORBA or
Pyro. But software such as VMWare or VirtualBox tries hard to *not* let
guest and host os influence each other.

Diez,

What you have said is extremely concerning.
I am now using VMware. With Linux as the Master and windows as the
guest operating system. I was wondering if you have ever had to develop
a share memory resource between Linux and windows within a Vmware setup?

Thanks for the help. I will not be forgotten,
David Blubaugh

There is no such thing. As I said, the two systems are isolated. For
programming purposes, consider your setup being two distinct machines.

Python syntax in Lisp and Scheme

Python on portable storage

Hello We have a lot of C++ code. And we need to now create a library which can be used from C and C++. Given that we have a lot of C++ code using classes how can we 'hide' the fact that it is C++ from C compilers? Can we have a C header file which uses the functionality of the C++ files and compile this into a lib file?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
