Abstract
We briefly saw the use of the inter-process communication (IPC) module as one solution for having contextual menus in our application. In this chapter, we are going to explore this module in greater depth. Now, this is not the most glamorous part of API, but it is certainly the workhorse that much of our real-world applications will rely upon.
