IPC between .NET and C++ applications

Question

Are there any libraries for inter-process communication (IPC) between a .NET application and a native C++ application?

Answer 1

You can use Socket for simple communication. It's in the os so you don't need any new libraries. Detailed info in C++ Socket and C# Socket

If the interprocess communication is always going to be done on the same machine, named pipes is the way to go because they are faster than other options.
