SCOP is a library for writing distributed applications. The functionality includes message-passing, events, and RPCs.

SCOP is primarily aimed at C++ programs on Linux, or Java anywhere. Much simpler than CORBA, it is easy to learn, general-purpose, fairly fast, thoroughly documented, complete, and free.

What's New in This Release:
A prebuilt "stream" client has been added for importing streams of events from other programs.
Support for reliable streams has been added to the C++ library and clients, which can now automatically reconnect and keep running even if the server is rebooted.
There are improvements to logging and better support for running on different port numbers to avoid firewall restrictions.
