Now, I have to add clients that are written in .NET C# using SilverLight controls. I know how to do named pipes in C#.

What happen until now is this: Any line happens once, and if I use awhile(1) or while (nFlags == MK_LBUTTON) its working as it should but I get a crash. The other problem, or maybe the same one is the delay if I will be able to do it, maybe using while() with Timer()? I was thinking about Timer() to recall the function with delay but ...

Updated: please see this other thread instead, all this COM stuff is not part of the problem. One of our apps has a COM interface which will launch a dialog, e.g: STDMETHODIMP CSomeClass::LaunchDialog(BSTR TextToDisplay) { CDialog *pDlg = new CSomeDialog(TextToDisplay); pDlg->BringWindowToTop(); } For some reason when the COM m...
(title updated) Following on from this question, now I have a clearer picture what's going on... I have a MFC application with no main window, which exposes an API to create dialogs.
