Re: Shared memory and IOCP

What about WM_COPYDATA message? Will it work for you?

Well, I think we speak about two completely separate domains. :-)
WM_COPYDATA is a convinient mechanism for passing simple
messages between windows apps. I need a high throughput local communication layer for bulk transfers close to the peak performance
of the memory subsystem. Not to mention that my programs do not
even have GUI to interpret the WM_ messages, they are big
completion port-based, fully asynchronous multithreaded servers.
I have all the necessary components: shared memory provides
enough bandwidth and the IOCP model provides high scalability.
I'm just looking for a way to match these interfaces using some nifty
trick, since the obvious solution, i.e. PostRemoteQueuedCompletionStatus(),
does not exist on XP and 2003 (don't know much about Vista).
