Communicate between windows form and console.

Question

Just wondering if anyone has an example of communicating from console app to windows form or vice versa. Thanks

Answer 1

Hi,

I'd try with Inter-Process Communication mechanisms (IPCs) or with writing/reading temp files. It depends on your application.

Answer 2

What form of communication are you talking about?

Information can be written to and read from a flat text file, XML files, a database etc.

There could be direct communication via sockets.

Or are you talking about one application "controlling" the other in some way?
