Inter-Transport Communication¶

Introduction¶

Inter-Transport communication becomes necessary, when participants that connect to the bus using different transport mechanisms want to communicate.

This page describes how setup participants for inter-transport communication using following scenario which is illustrated in the figure below:

• Participants reside in two separate processes
  • One process is an instance of the program inprocessAndSpread
    • There is one Informer in the process. It has two connectors
      • One connector for the Spread transport
      • One connector for the inprocess transport
    • There is one Listener in the process. It has two connectors
      • One connector for the Spread transport
      • One connector for the inprocess transport
  • The other is an instance of the program spreadOnly
    • There is one Listener in the. It has a single connector for the Spread transport.
