Welcome to XYSystem Components!
XYSystem is a software package containing a set of tools and programs for developing client-server systems. Some key components in this package have both Win32 and Java versions which makes it ideal for developing cross-platform systems. Please read the copyright notice before using this package.
What is XYSystem exactly? The answer depends on how you use it. You can use it as a simple tool to transfer data between your programs, or you can use it as a middle-ware package to develop complicated client-server systems. XYSystem is the implementation of some simple ideas that make inter-process communication extremely easy.
Here is what XYSystem can do for you. You can connect all your application processes together. The connected processes can be running on one or many computers. Once connected, any two processes can communicate with each other and any data can be moved from one process to another.
XYMessenger is the key component that establishes communication between different processes. Each application can have one or more XYMessenger objects embedded. Please read the help topic XYSystem Network on how the communication is established.
XYSystem was first designed in 1998 and implemented in 1998-2000. It has been tested on various windows or unix platforms. The package is ideal to be used in programs developed with VC++, VB, or Java. It can even be used in console applications. The Java version of XYSystem is compatible with the Win32 version. That is, programs using the Win32 version can communicate with programs using the Java version.
XYSystem is incredibly small. It is also efficient and easy-to-use. For more details on XYSystem, please look at the table of contents to find out related help topics.
