    BInd to events from win service from desktop application

    Hi,

    I need to create a win service that lookup a file ina folder, ands
    when received, read it then fir an event.

    Then I need a desktop app that, when runs, bind to the event from the
    win service, and when the event fires, read the eventarg data and do
    some processing with.

    Can anyone point me to the right direction to do this?

    I will use filesystemwatch er to detect when file changes, but don't
    know from there

    I know how to do this with COM (the service is a com obj defining an
    interface and the desktop app implements that interface and bind to
    the running service), but not sure how to do it in NET

    Any advice or suggestion is appreciated.

    Thank you

      One easy approach is to start off a new process(desktop app) with
      appropriate arguments everytime the file changes.

          Hi,

          This doesn't works, because I don't want to desktop process to open
          everytime.
          The service must do what it is designed to do, and the desktop is just
          a monitor, users can choose to start when they want to see the status
          of service processing.

          It might not be started for days, for example

          Any other thought?

              then you will have to use some better form of IPC .. named pipes,
              remoting or MSMQ
