There could be Unix implementations of COM but it is generally a MS
Windows-only tech.
AFIAK Rev can't do COM, Windows or not, without some fancy C external
writing.
For interprocess communication on Unix one might expect TCP/IP or
shared memory or pipes and processes. Or CORBA or other "ORB"s (object
request brokers).
Revolution has TCP/IP and open process support. But not shared memory
or the others.
Hope this helps,
