- I have several OpenDoc parts that will read/write their data from/to the
- network. There will also be a local cache file for that data. Since there
- may be several instance of my OpenDoc parts open in different documents,
- the parts cannot manage the cache file directly. So I thought having a
- background task to serve all my OpenDoc parts, managing the cache file and
- performing network communication.
-
- I see two methods to communicate information between my parts and my
- background part server:
-
- 1. AppleEvents
- 2. OD extensions
-
- What is the best way?
-
- If OD extensions is the best way, then how can a background task
- communicate with the extension of an OpenDoc part?
