Can I write applications on my Mac that will communicate with applications on a Linux or Win7 VM running on the same Mac?
For example I would like to have my applications on the Mac hit a database or Web server in a different OS in a VM running on the same computer. If this is possible can you also recommend any resources on getting this done?
At the present time I have a new MBP and a 08. On the new MBP I already have Win7 running in Fusion VM. When I access the shared folders on my Mac side from within Win7, Explorer says Im doing so over a network connection. This gives me the idea that there is some way to get this done without having to use the 08. Being able to develop on a single computer would make it easy to work on trips (I travel each week) because I wouldnt have to lug two computers around.
BTW
