python 与别的程序通信_python和java之间的IPC（进程间通信）

First, a little explanation of why I'm asking this question in the first place:

I'm writing a python program (with a wxPython gui) that needs to call a Java AWT program from python and extract data from it. I have an in-process working solution on Windows. I also have an in-process solution on OSX so long as I run the Java app headless. Unfortunately there is no reasonable solution that I have found for running both GUIs within the same process on OSX because both AWT and WX both want the first thread and cannot share the wx message loop.

What I would like to do is to launch a Java program in a separate process from my Python program and establish a pipe or queue or something for passing data (specifically byte arrays) back and forth.

I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions, or even a nudge in the right direction as I have very little experience with IPC.

I attempted to code a solution using pipes but it seems that they just aren't well suited to sending multiple messages back and forth with potentially large data attached. Rather, they seem ideal for opening a "worker" style program that runs, responds, and dies.

The tutorial presents TCP and UDP variants of a simple chat program written in 4 languages. I ended up using and modifying the TCP Java client and Python server.
