Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
We pipe data from distributed apps written in C++ with MPI to Java viewers using a socket connection. The java viewserver starts up a socket listener at a prespecified port; the C++ app then creates a socket and connects to that port from a remote machine. Works great.
