I want to pass data between a Python and a C# application in Windows (I want the channel to be bi-directional) In fact I wanna pass a struct containing data about a network packet that I've captured with C# (SharpPcap) to the Python app and then send back a modified packet to the C# program. What do you propose ? (I rather it be a fast method) My searches so far revealed that I can use these technologies, but I don't know which:

  1. JSON-RPC
  2. Use WCF (run the project under IronPython using Ironclad)
  3. WCF (use Python for .NET)
A: 

Use JSON-RPC because the experience that you gain will have more practical use. JSON is widely used in web applications written in all of the dozen or so most popular languages.

A: 

Why not use a simple socket communication, or if you wish you can start a simple http server, and/or do json-rpc over it.

Are there any JSON-RPC implementation for both C# and Python that support bidirectional communication ?
Mehdi Asgari
not sure abt JSON-RPC, but for your purpose why you need JSON-RPC, just send the packet data over socket/http and return it back after processing, like a web api
