Anyone know of a Linux/DBus sort of mechanism for Windows?

Thanks

The following IPC mechanisms are supported by Windows:

  • Clipboard
  • COM
  • Data Copy
  • DDE
  • File Mapping
  • Mailslots
  • Pipes
  • RPC
  • Windows Sockets

The closest to DBus is COM.

Not yet part of the official reference implementation, but almost there.
