The communications manager monitors all objects registered with the communications manager within the plurality of processes. A determination of whether a first object is registered is made utilizing the communications manager, in response to receiving a request from a second object to send a message to the first object. Automatic initiation of the launching the first object within the processes is performed if the first object is unregistered utilizing the communications manager. Next, the first process containing the first object is bound to the second process containing the second object, wherein a communications path is established between the first process and the second of the process. The message is sent to the first object from the second object via the established communications path between the two processes, wherein communication between the first object and the second object is automatically established.
