Salut,

When I have a task where one application(sender) must put cdevData to another
application(receiver), I would like to have a choice of transport method.

As I see, it will be the best way to use either predefined(default) methods
or methods constracted by application developer.

Some default types of last one should be available:
send cdevData "as is in tag<->value representation"
send cdevData "as is in string<->value representation"
send cdevData by "solution #2"
...

Apps developer constracted method is usefull for cases when sender and
receiver are deeply aware of each ather.

In addition to assign unique pair tag<->string, tag2string mapping mechanics
should be able to produce unique tag for string by itself.

Be happy,
Vladimir
