Abstract

An apparatus for communicating between a first operating environment and a second operating environment in an operating system includes a storage device storing machine-readable code and a processor executing the machine-readable code. The machine-readable code includes a receiving module receiving a request in a first operating environment from an application executing in a second operating environment. The first and second operating environments are provided by a common operating system. The request is communicated through a first communication path. The machine-readable code includes a response module sending a response from the first operating environment to the application in the second operating environment through a second communication path distinct from the first communication path.
