Shared Memory Example for Symbian

Question

Hi

I would like to share some memory between two processes. Unfortunately I cannot find any useful examples when using google. The only thing that comes up is how P.I.P.S can be used. But I remember that it could be done in another way, similar to the one of creating of message queues. Would be great if someone could point me in the right direction!

Many thanks

Answer 1

Use RChunk for plain shared memory. It is a low level, quite efficient mechanism.

Use RMsgQueue for message queues, which are on a bit higher abstraction level. See Using Message Queue in the SDK help for more.
