libipc

libipc - Simple, easy-to-use IPC library

See the introductory man page.

Compilation

make

logging system

Logs are in one of the following directories: $XDG_DATA_HOME/ipc/ or $HOME/.local/share/ipc/. The log file can be indicated with the IPC_LOGFILE environment variable, too.

To remove logs: make LDFLAGS=-DIPC_WITHOUT_ERRORS

Planning for 0.7

  • libipc should have callbacks to use along with switching capabilities, making easier to implement proxies with communication protocols

Planning for 0.8

  • libipc should be thread-safe

Planning for 0.8

  • libipc should use libevent for performance improvments

Planning for 1.0

  • libipc should have usable bindings in several languages

Implementation design

Memory management

  1. Prefer stack over mallocs.
  2. Basic functions (such as usock_) should not handle memory allocation.
