Hi!
As you know, aRts isn't using CORBA anymore, but it is also not using DCOP.
If you asked yourself: why? wouldn't that be easier? I've written something
for you...:
http://space.twc.de/~stefan/kde/arts-mcop-doc/why-not-dcop.html
To summarize, the issues I discussed are:
- type concept
- self describing interfaces of objects (interface repository)
- integration of streaming
- speed
- protocol comparision
- peer-to-peer vs. dcopserver routing
- a (probably not quite good) benchmark
- transparent usage as lib or remote
- quality of service, stream transfer
- MCOP doesn't use Qt
By the way, MCOP is faster, and I have benchmarked it to 8000 synchronous
invocations per second while DCOP does 2000 after my tests.
Cu... Stefan
