    Use shared memory, message, queues, shared resource (like a file), unix domain sockets or search google for InterProcess Communication (IPC). You can also try to use already existing frameworks like dcop or Corba. BTW. Why can't you use a network socket?

    It's not the only way. You can probably create a unix domain socket (or simply a pipe) and then pass its descriptor to QTcpSocket (or QUdpSocket). And you can use all other mentioned solutions.
