hi

I have made a windows service and a windows application as service manager. I can control the service from the service manager and also I am able to send and excecute commands which have been supported by the service throgh customCommands.

now what I need is to send back the information which the service will get from the network, to the win application (service manager). is there any simple way to do it other than socket programming? the only thing that I need is to notify the user from system tray about the information from service

thank you in advance

regards

You could do this very easily with Wcf. Just create endpoints in the application that the service can talk to. I would recommend both Tcp and namedPipe endpoints so this applicaiton can be used on teh same machine or accross teh network.
