How can i share some memory space among two programmes (or processes)?
I have two executable running on the same machine and i want to share a particular variable (like different threads share variables).
I was thinking of writing a third program that launches these two executables as a process, but how do i get them to share?
Well, I doubt you can do it like this with managed code. You may be able to use a memory mapped file though.
I dont know what is a memory mapped file. Can you give me a link to a tutorial or some place where they can provide info on this topic/books recommended etc.
MapViewOfFile, search MSDN for that. I don't know if .net can use it or not, but most likely it can.
Another way to do it is to use Remoting.

Do they really need to run as two different processes? Can you just reference code from the other executable and call it on another thread?
