How to send a string from a application to DAL plugin using IPC on MacOS?

160 views Asked by At

I have a CoreMediaIO based DAL plugin written in Swift which currently poll a website to get that string. Which is not a good approach.

I want to send that string to DAL plugin via Operating System supported IPC(Inter Process Communication).

But there are many ways to do IPC on MacOS like

  • Apple Events
  • Distributed Notifications in Cocoa
  • BSD Notifications
  • Transferring Raw Data With CFMessagePort
  • Communicating With BSD Sockets
  • Communicating With BSD Pipes
  • Distributed Objects
  • Pasteboard
  • XPC

In my case I just want one way communication from a application to DAL Plugin.

I am new to MacOS development so not sure which approch will be efficiant and best for my case of one way comminucation from Application to DAL Plugin?
