Fast, easy syntax for RPC among C++ programsIt supports:

Calling remote functions as if they were local Register multiple handlers for incoming calls (multicast, essentially), uses boost::signals for flexibility Override the same RPC function name by differing arguments Fast packaging up of arguments and return values Endianize/pack argument/return data as needed before transporting Template specialization for packaging up new data types; or use the default (copies memory straight over) Supports various transports: TCP/IP (IPv4 and IPv6), UNIX domain sockets, memory sockets Handles up to 10 arguments, a la Boost functors Easy C++ syntax for creation of local and remote procedures on an RPC stream

Core library requires:

Boost signals BSD-style sockets API UNIX domain sockets API

Examples require:

Boost threads

TipRPC was written and is maintained by Tippett Studio for inter-tools communication.
